  • The museum takes you through an audio tour of the house where the Frank family lived for two years and Ann wrote her diary. Definitely book online in advance. The cloakroom is free so Definitely put your coat and bags in as the staircases are steep and narrow. The electronic audio guide is free and in eight different languages. A must visit in Amsterdam.
  • What an incredible story of survival. The words of a young girl who carried the world. I’m not going post the exhibit photos. It wouldn’t be fathomable to tell here. After the tour, there is a full coffee bar and book shop. For a child who longed for the sun and window with a view. This inclusive audio tour finishes in a wonderful view on the city. I checked two carry on sized bags at not cost, but they are subject to security check. Staff was very professional and multilingual. Please plan your tickets in advance to this unique exhibit. Then make your way the Spinoza statue, the Jewish Ghetto , and the Theater to learn about the human experiences of the Holocaust. Please don’t be alarmed by the extra security around the building. The rise of antisemitism is ever present. Be mindful and vigilant.
