The Anne Frank House is located at Prinsengracht 263-267 and consists of three connected buildings. The exhibition on the ground floor is about Anne’s life and the history of her family, which originally lived in Frankfurt am Main. The two upper floors are occupied by a permanent exhibition about Anne’s life and show her old bedroom, where she hid from Nazi persecution for more than two years with her family.


The museum has been visited by over 1 million people every year since opening.

Alongside that, there is also plenty of culture and street art; the Red-Light District (just outside the city center) with its sex shops, coffee bars and restaurants is always interesting to explore.
