The Anne Frank Museum
Le Anne Frank Museum in Amsterdam is one of the most important and most famous museums in the world. It is in the house where Anne lived and kept her diary during World War II. The museum presents the original house pieces and interactive exhibits about the experience of Anne and other Jews who tried to survive the Nazi occupation. Visitors can also explore the world around Anne through films, photos and excerpts from her writings. A trip to the Anne Frank Museum is a emotional occasion where people can learn about Anne, her family, their tragic individual stories and how they reflect the first stage in the Nazi regime's global expansion. It is a very powerful experience!
