About "The Boompjes Rotterdam"

About the artwork

Around 1600, Rotterdam started the construction of the Waterstad, located outside Schielands Hoge Zeedijk. A promenade was built between Leuvehaven and Oude Haven, on which a double row of lime trees was planted in 1615. Descending towards the water, willows were planted. The arrival of this lush greenery soon caused the Rotterdammers to call the quay 'De Boomptjens'. Almost two centuries later, the quay was renamed differently for a short period because of the birth of a child of Emperor Napoleon in 1811. De Boompjes was then renamed Quai Napoléon or Napoleons Kaay, and its recreational function remained in the foreground until the 19th century. After 1878 with the construction of the Willemsbrug, the traffic function came to dominate. In the May days of 1940, the Boompjes was the front line, leading to a lot of damage. The bombing of Rotterdam then destroyed most of the buildings including the Oostindisch Huis, the Swedish Seamen's Church and the synagogue of the Dutch Israelite Community.
