What To See In Amsterdam? The Anne Frank House.

Almost everyone in the world knows who Anne Frank was, but if your memory is a little cloudy, let’s do a little recap. Anne was the Jewish girl who hid with her family in a Secret Annex in Amsterdam starting in 1942. The Nazis were seizing control of the area and any Jews that were found were being sent to concentration camps. The house she lived in has been turned into the Anne Frank Museum.

Anne Frank lived within the Secret Annex, which was upstairs to her father’s old business building at Prinsengracht 263, with her mother, father, sister, and four other people. They all had to stay very quiet, especially during the day when the workers were in the business below. Anne spent many of her days writing in her diary, which her father had published after he was once a free man again.

Today, you can visit the Secret Annex, because it has been turned into the Anne Frank Museum. Thee are many original pieces within this museum, along with documents, photos, and Anne’s original diary and personal notebooks.

It is important to note that tickets to the Anne Frank Museum must be purchased in advance, due to the popularity of this historical site. Tickets can be purchased online two months in advance at noon Amsterdam time.

Those tickets go on sale at nine in the morning Amsterdam time and you still must purchase them online.
