De Roos (literally, "The Rose"), also locally known as Roosmolen or Koren op de Molen, is a wind and platform mill situated within the municipality of Delft, in the South Holland province of the Netherlands. The mill was originally constructed on the southern city wall of Delft but was later relocated and rebuilt above the western fortifications of the Dutch municipality in 1679. Two principal phases of implementation of the Delft mill followed this reconstruction. The first was dated 1728, while the second was from the 1760s. The building has been the subject of multiple restoration projects, commencing in the late 1920s and concluding in 2023. The artistic work, whose historical background remains largely uncharted before its 1679 reconstruction, represents the sole surviving mill within the erstwhile fortified zone of Delft, among the eighteen that previously operated within the Dutch city. On the current site of De Roos, at 111-112 Phoenixstraat, there originally stood a post mill called Gasthuismolen, which was destroyed during a storm in the second half of the 17th century. Previously bordered by the tramway and then the railway line connecting the city to The Hague, the site of De Roos mill has been situated above the Willem of Orange railway tunnel since the second half of the 2010s. The construction of this infrastructure necessitated the hydraulic jacking and the underpinning of the De Roos complex — mill, miller's house, warehouse — and preventive archaeological excavations that revealed remnants of the windmill dating from the late 17th century and early 18th century, as well as elements of the western portion of the medieval city wall of Delft. Despite periods of inactivity, particularly during periods of restoration and repair, the mill remains operational. It has been managed by many millers, including those from the Kouwenhoven, van Rhijn, and De Vreede families. On June 29, 1967, the Dutch Cultural Heritage Agency designated the De Roos grain mill, along with the miller's house and warehouse surrounding its skirt, as a national monument. The windmill is conical in shape and of the skirt and platform type. It is rather massive in scope and height, constructed of bricks and jointed stones. The mill is equipped with a rotating cap, and the milling work, which transforms grains of cereals into flour, is powered by a complex set of elements, mostly mechanical, motorized, and electric for a few. The house and warehouse, also constructed of masonry bricks, feature facades with gables.

The Oude Kerk (Old Church), nicknamed Oude Jan ("Old John") and Scheve Jan ("Skewed John"), is a Gothic Protestant church in the old city center of Delft, the Netherlands. Its most recognizable feature is a 75-meter-high brick tower that leans about two meters from the vertical.

The Prinsenhof ("The Court of the Prince") in the city of Delft in the Netherlands is an urban palace built in the Middle Ages as a monastery. Later it served as a residence for William the Silent. William was assassinated in the Prinsenhof by Balthasar Gérard in 1584 - the holes in the wall made by the bullets at the main stairs are still visible. Since 1911, the building houses a municipal museum. Today, the building displays a collection of Dutch Golden Age paintings.

The Flower-holder (Tulpenvaas) is one of a matching pair of tulip vases dated to ca. 1690 and currently in the collection of Museum Het Prinsenhof.The pair was created in the tin-glazed delftware company called "De Griekse A" ("The Greek A") in Delft. A flower-holder such as these was meant to maximize the use of tulips and each tubular hole in the top was meant for one individual flower, as tulips were so expensive at the time. Each vase can hold 15 tulips. It is unusual to see tulip vases in pairs. This pair is unusual both for its age and condition, and was purchased by the museum in 1975 after the vases were put on display by Aronson Antiquairs of Amsterdam at an art fair hosted by the museum itself. Each vase was made in four separate pieces. The assembly consists of a foot-piece, a vase that rest on it, and a double-layered lid with tubular holes. These tubular holes are referred to as spouts, but were not used for pouring. The lids fit into each other and were designed to hold 8 and 7 individual blooms respectively. The Greek A factory was known for its decorative table objects, but also became known for its extravagant tower vases, that held many more flowers. These tower vases would have been very costly to have filled completely. Tulips were very difficult to propagate and were considered quite expensive, though no longer as expensive as they had been during tulip mania when speculation in the market for flower bulbs caused several well-to-do growers to go bankrupt in the 1630s. It is unknown who designed this specific pair of vases, but a similar vase in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art without the foot piece was designed by Daniel Marot for the Greek A factory during the period of Adrianus Koecks, who is documented working there during the years 1689–94.A replica of a tulip pyramid vase made by De Griekse A in this period was used as a backdrop for President Obama's visit to the Netherlands in 2014. Each tier of the vase containing spouts is a separate piece. While the paired vases have two tiers, pyramid vases can have 10 or more tiers of spouts.

The Mensenvereniging Wolbodo was founded in 1959 as the PSK (Parochiele Studenten Kring) by 17 students, who were Catholic, but did not want to join the Catholic student society Virgiel. In 1960 the name was changed to Sanctus Wolbodo or in Dutch "Sint Wolbodo", referring both to the saint who supposedly is the patron saint of students and to its Catholic nature.

The Hoogheemraadschap van Delfland is a Dutch waterboard, which is responsible for water management. It covers the municipalities of Delft, Midden-Delfland and The Hague, and is fully located in the province of South Holland.

The Saint Hippolytus Chapel (Dutch: Sint-Hippolytuskapel) is a chapel in the old city of Delft. It is one of the oldest buildings in Delft, and since 1967 it has been designated the Rijksmonument.The church was built around 1400 in the Gothic style and is located on the east side of the Oude Deft. Until the Reformation, the Oude Kerk was consecrated to Saint Hippolytus, and the name of the chapel comes from the city quarter. At the time of foundation, it was a part of the already existent female religious community, similar to a monastery - Holy Spirit Sisters House (Dutch: Heilige Geestzusterhuis). It was built on the foundations of the older chapel and was consecrated in 1412. In 1536, it was badly damaged by a fire and subsequently restored. In 1572, during the Reformation, the interior of the chapel was emptied, and the clock and the cross were taken from the tower. After 1581, it was used as a depot, but a part of the chapel was still used for service by Protestants.In 1910, the chapel was restored, and the design of the facade was altered, making it to look more like the original design. Since 1924 and until the construction of the new campus of Delft University of Technology in 1966, the doctorate ceremonies of the university were held in the chapel. In 1972, it was transferred to the Roman Catholic Church and since 30 July 1972 is used for service.

The City Hall in Delft is a Renaissance style building on the Markt across from the Nieuwe Kerk. It is the seat of the city's government as well as a popular venue for civic wedding ceremonies. Most administrative functions have been transferred to an office inside the Delft railway station building. Originally designed by the Dutch architect Hendrick de Keyser, it was heavily changed over the centuries and was restored in the 20th century to its Renaissance appearance.

The Vermeer Centre is an information center dedicated to the painter Johannes Vermeer and the work of his contemporaries in Delft, the Netherlands. The building is a rebuilt version of the old local Guild of Saint Luke. The center works with local archeology groups and other heritage organisations to disseminate information about Delft during the lifetime of Vermeer. The center acts as a museum, though technically it does not own the original artifacts on display and therefore has not earned the Dutch label for "Museum". Based on scale copies of known artworks by Vermeer and his contemporaries, multi-media exhibition displays beginning in the basement lead the visitor literally upwards through time during the life of Johannes Vermeer, explaining the work of contemporaries and events that occurred during his lifetime. In the top floor an exhibition on his work methods is set up, with an opportunity for visitor to pose for a picture as Lady Writing a Letter with her Maid. The ground floor contains a small gift store and book shop.
