Anne Frank
What you need to know before your trail

Her story adapted for children is one that everyone the world over, no matter what their age, should know.
Travel Guide
Amsterdam and Anne Frank’s House
Museum house where Anne Frank & her family hid from the Nazis in a secret annex, during WWII. You will never forget the day and time you visit this amazing museum. When you realise the small size of the rooms and the claustrophobic conditions of the house, let alone the fact that Anne and several others had to live here as quietly as possible, you won’t be able to imagine it.
The photos that Anne pasted on her bedroom wall are still there as is much of the furniture and bits from the house. The most iconic site is of course that bookcase that moved aside to reveal the secret annex. A video narration at the end by Anne’s father will have you in tears if you aren’t already.
Anne and her sister were transferred to Auschwitz and then to Bergen Belsen where she sadly died. Her story, however lives on.
