Kenaupark, Urban park and national monument in central Haarlem, Netherlands

The Kenaupark features a monumental row of nine mansions along its eastern edge, complemented by two additional villas at Zijhuizen street.

Jan David Zocher designed this park in 1865, naming it after Kenau Simonsdochter Hasselaer who participated in the 1572 Siege of Haarlem.

A bronze statue titled 'Vrouw in verzet' stands in the park since 1982, honoring resistance fighter Hannie Schaft who died during World War II.

The park hosts ProefPark Haarlem, a food truck festival where visitors can sample portions from multiple vendors priced between 5 and 15 euros.

During the 1930s and 1950s, two of the park's mansions transformed into dedicated housing for single women, initiated by Emilie van Waveren-Resink.
