Haagse Bos is a forest in the centre of The Hague, Netherlands. It reaches from the centre of The Hague near Malieveld to the city of Wassenaar. It is also one of the oldest remaining forests of the Netherlands. During World War II, the park was used by the Germans for launching V-1 and V-2 rockets.
Originally the Haagse Bos was a section of a bigger forest that stretched from 's-Gravenzande to Alkmaar. This was called Die Hout (The Woods). The title eventually gave way to the name Houtland (which literally means "Wood lands") and later became Holland. From this original forest only the Haagse Bos remains.
