A History of Urban Forests and Trees in Europe. Forrest, M. & Konijnendijk, C. In Konijnendijk, C., Nilsson, K., Randrup, T., & Schipperijn, J., editors, Urban Forests and Trees, pages 23–48. Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2005.

Introduction: Trees, woods and woodlands have long been associated with European cities. The London plane, the pines of Rome and Vienna Woods (Wienerwald), for example, indicate how trees have become part of the vocabulary of cities. Cities have expanded to the periphery of woodlands such as Epping Forest in London and the For\^et de Soignes in Brussels. Woodland has been enveloped by an expanding city such as the Bois de Boulogne (see Fig. 2.1) and Bois de Vincennes in Paris and Kenwood in London to become important urban parks. Trees have given their name to streets, for example, the Unter den Linden, in Berlin.
