Die geskiedkundige Tuin van Herinnering op Kerkplein het onlangs verdere geskiedenis gemaak toe Worcester Toerisme sy eerste blou plaket vir di\u00e9 tuin onthul het.<\/p>\n
Blou plakette is oorspronklik \u2019n konsep van die British Heritage-bewaringsliggaam, waar Britse erfenis- en bewaringsliggame \u2019n plaket of inligtingsbord aanbring by historiese persele waar geskiedkundige gebeurtenisse plaasgevind het, of wat met belangrike historiese figure verbind word.<\/p>\n
Sedertdien het hierdie konsep w\u00eareldwyd uitgebrei en bring toerismeverenigings dit ook w\u00eareldwyd aan op erfenisroetes, waar dit dan \u2019n permanente teken is om as \u2019n skakel met die verlede te dien.<\/p>\n
Aangesien dit w\u00eareldwyd herken word as \u2019n merk van geskiedkundige mense, gebeurtenisse of plekke, besoek toeriste en erfenisliefhebbers van oraloor dan hierdie plakette as deel van \u2019n erfenisroete.<\/p>\n
\u2019n Blou plaket plant die saadjie dat \u2019n spesifieke perseel \u2019n plek is om vir \u2019n oomblik by stil te staan, te reflekteer en om \u2019n perseel se geskiedkundige belang in hero\u00ebnskou te neem. <\/p>\n
Die Tuin van Herinnering was die perfekte plek vir Worcester Toerisme om met hul eerste blou plaket te begin, aangesien di\u00e9 tuin nie net Worcester se hartklop vorm nie, maar ook omdat die tuin al 102 jaar oud is.<\/p>\n
Op 21 Julie 1919 het die bekende skilder Hugo Naud\u00e9 en die destydse voorsitter van die Worcester-sakekamer, David Smith, toestemming namens die Worcester Eeufees- en Oorlogsmonu\u00admentekommissie van die Worcester-stadsraad gevra om \u2019n monument in die middel van Kerkplein op te rig. Toestemming is verleen en Hugo Naud\u00e9 het die Tuin van Herinnering ontwerp. Dit is beplan as \u2019n Worcester Eeufees- en Oorlogsmonument, en is soms ook in die ou geskrifte die \u201cEeufeesmonument\u201d genoem omdat Worcester in 1920 honderd jaar oud sou wees, asook \u201cOorlogsmonument\u201d ter ere van gesneuweldes tydens die Eerste W\u00eareldoorlog.<\/p>\n
In September 1919 l\u00ea Hugo Naud\u00e9 sy sketsplan van die Tuin van Herinnering aan die Worcester-munisipaliteit voor. Die basis van die ou Victoria Jubileumfontein van 1887, wat aanvanklik in die middel van Kerkplein gestaan het, is behou, terwyl die fontein self verwyder is.<\/p>\n
Die Tuin van Herinnering sou met blomme en struike uit die Worcester-veld beplant word. Die hele projek sou aanvanklik \u00a31 000 kos. Die Tuin van Herinnering is onthul op 27 Februarie 1920 om saam met die Eeufeesjaar van Worcester te val. Die tuin is sedertdien uitgebrei om onder meer ook al Worcester se gesneuweldes in die Tweede W\u00eareldoorlog en die Worcester-bomaanval te gedenk. Daar is ook vele ander monumente wat ander geskiedkundige gebeure herdenk.<\/p>\n
Oor die jare moes Kerkplein al vele ontwikkelings trotseer, maar gelukkig het di\u00e9 plein al die aanslae oorleef om vir die nageslagte in sy oorspronklike formaat behoue te bly.<\/p>\n
Kerkplein in sy geheel, tesame met die Tuin van Herinnering, is op 20 September 1974 deur die destydse minister van opvoeding, senator JP van der Spuy, as nasionale gedenkwaardigheid verklaar. Die aanbring van die blou plaket op Kerkplein verhoog verder di\u00e9 plein se erfenisbelang vir die toekoms.<\/p>\n
Ter herdenking van die honderdjarige bestaan van die Tuin van Herinnering het Breedevallei-munisipaliteit en die Worcester Business Improvement District, tesame met LTS Security in 2020 etlike projekte aangepak om die Tuin van Herinnering op te knap, waaronder (1) die herstel van die fontein van herinnering en die groot poel van herinnerings en die kleiner poel van herinnerings se watervloei; (2) die restourasie van die Kerkpleinkanon; (3) aanbring van gedenkplate met die name van al nege mense wat ere-burgerskap van Worcester ontvang het; (4) die restourasie van blombakke en die poel van herinnering se krake en barste; (5) herstel van monumente; (6) plant van nuwe struike en plante; (6) beveiliging van die tuin deur aanbring van sekuriteitskameras; (7) beveiliging van die tuin met nagtelike patrollies; en (8) geoutomatiseerde besproeiing.<\/p>\n
Die aanbring van die blou plaket is \u2019n verdere uitvloeisel van al hierdie inisiatiewe wat vir die Tuin van Herinnering se honderdjarige bestaan beplan is.<\/p>\n
Hierdie inisiatiewe help om die Tuin van Herinnering weer in \u2019n groot mate tot sy eertydse glorie te herstel. Aangesien die tuin \u2019n gemeenskapsbate is, moet dit dan ook \u2019n gemeenskapsinisiatief wees om die tuin te help herstel en voortdurend te verbeter. <\/p>\n
Die tuin se nuwe blou plaket bied \u2019n groot toerismegeleentheid en die ideaal is dat Worcester Toerisme sal voortgaan om die verhaal van Worcester se geskiedenis en geskiedkundige mense te vertel in \u2019n reeks strategies geplaaste blou plakette wat dan Worcester se erfenisroete verder kan help uitbou.<\/p>\n
Indien Breedevallei se ander toerismeverenigings hierby sou aansluit, kan al Breedevallei se blou plakette \u2019n fassinerende Breedevallei-erfenisroete uitmaak.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
