Abstract
In the Netherlands, since monuments are considered as a part of the urban context, preservation is seen as a goal embedded in urban policies. Discusses town planning policies embracing not only the historically important parts of the urban environment, but also the urban entity as a whole. Recommends preservation plans, master plans, or land-use plans, that concentrate on the functional aspects of urban life. Discusses comprehensive land-use plans in the Netherlands and the experience of over 25 years.
