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.

Hodenpijl is a hamlet in the Dutch province of South Holland. It is located 3 km southwest of the centre of Delft, in the municipality of Midden-Delfland. Hodenpijl was a separate municipality between 1817 and 1855, when it merged with Schipluiden.

Schipluiden is a village in the western Netherlands, in the province of South Holland. It is the seat of the council of the municipality of Midden-Delfland. The village was founded relatively late in the 15th century and evolved around the Keenenburg castle, which no longer exists. The current Dutch Reformed church in the village centre belonged to the Catholic Teutonic Knights before 1572, when the Calvinists took over control of the church. The village inhabitants worked in the food trade from the agrarian area Westland to the cities of Vlaardingen and Delft. Most of the population became Roman Catholic in the 17th century. For sermons, they had to go to the Roman Catholic Church, some kilometres out of the village. In 1855, the municipality of Sint Maartensregt was merged into Schipluiden.A new Roman Catholic church was built in the 1960s. Schipluiden remained a small agrarian village until the 1950s. Its population began to grow significantly in the second half of the twentieth century as many middle-class people from the cities came to live in the village, but the village has maintained its village culture. Schipluiden was a separate municipality until 2004, when it became part of Midden-Delfland.

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.
