abstract: This thesis explores the relationship between sense of place and landscape in the National Park Drentsche Aa,
using a mixed methods approach. Results of the research show that landscape experience, among other things, is a significant factor in the formation and deepening of sense of place in rural villages, and should be considered a holistic concept, rather than an accumulation of various individual elements. In the National Park, landscape identity and place attachment are intertwined and deemed essential to communities living in rural villages. The paper argues that participation of local communities in the maintenance of the National Park is able to deepen sense of place even further, as long as clear communication between stakeholders regarding landscape management, cultural heritage, and long-term vision can be guaranteed.
