About Anne Frank Museum
The Anne Frank House in Amsterdam is where Anne Frank wrote her diary during WWII while hiding from the Nazis for 2 years and 35 days. You can visit the secret annex where she and her family lived in hiding. It's a powerful reminder of the horrors of Nazi persecution and a testament to human strength. It has been preserved in the same condition as when the Nazis ransacked the house after arresting its residents, inviting people from all over the world to pay their respects and learn from her story.
There are no furnishings or furniture in the Anne Frank House. Otto Frank wanted to preserve the rooms as they were after the Nazis took away everything during the war.
After Anne and her family were forced to further isolate, she ceased writing in her red checkered diary and instead wrote on a scratchpad, the pages of which are on display today.
Researchers examine the notebooks from Anne’s diary every 10 years to look for missing pages.
Anne Frank’s diary is the most famous diary of all time and was added to the Unesco Memory of the World Register in 2009.
Anne and the other occupants spent 2 years and 35 days hiding in the Secret Annex before they were discovered.
Why visit Anne Frank Museum?
Highlights
Main house and secret annex
On 6 July 1942, the Frank family went into hiding in the secret annex of the building at Prinsengracht 263. The Franks, the Van Pels, and Fritz Pfeffer hid on the top floors of the annex. In 1960, the Anne Frank House opened its doors as a museum, but at Otto’s request, the annex stayed empty.
Diary room
Displayed here is the original red-checked diary Anne Frank received on her 13th birthday, June 12, 1942, shortly before the family went into hiding in the Secret Annex. As she filled her diary, Anne's aspirations to become a writer and journalist blossomed, culminating in her rewriting the entire diary. Visitors can witness her dreams unfold through the meticulously preserved loose sheets of paper, along with her collections of favorite quotes and imaginative short stories.
