About Anne Frank House

At the Anne Frank House, you can explore the actual space where Anne Frank and her family lived in hiding. The museum features an audio tour that guides you through the rooms, sharing the poignant history of their time in the secret annex.

While the experience is deeply moving, be prepared for narrow stairs and limited seating, as the tour involves standing and moving through tight spaces. The atmosphere is respectful, with visitors often quiet as they absorb the significance of the site. A coat check is available, and no photos are allowed inside, which helps maintain the solemnity of the experience.
