I was there last year and it was well done. As we walked through the rooms, I kept hearing the floors creaking under us. I kept thinking that one little sound probably sounded terrifying to them. One person in our group couldn’t manage the stairs. They were pretty steep. She did a virtual tour and saw the furniture in place, she said it was eerie. Thank you for the video.

I just followed a German group from the street I had no idea where they were going. It was 1984, it felt so claustrophobic that I left and ran into her statue. I felt a horrible energy there, and felt sad I hadn’t worked out where I was. It’s all very different now 30 years on, with queues and ticket sellers.

Shelley Winters won an Oscar for the movie & donated it to the Anne Frank House… you can see it there if you visit.

I first toured the house in the late 1980’s it was much more authentic the building next to it was not part of the tour. You just got tickets at the door and you climbed up the steep stairs into the attic.

yup; same for me

They should of kept the attic all original now it just looks like another tourist attraction what a shame rip Anne Frank and her family 🙏

I toured the Anne Frank house many years ago. At that time we simply walked up to go in, no crowds, no problems.

When I visited in June 1976 it was so easy. And I saw the wall map that the family had marked the advance of Allied units. My eyes teared when I saw they had marked the advance of the Canadian 4th armored. My father was a padre in that division.

It looks very clean and modern now. I went through earlier when the walls had cutout pictures of movie stars and people a teenager would find interesting. More original and authentic. If I ever find my videos I may be able to upload them someday. Also Corrie ten Boom’s home from where they hid Jews during the same time.

I visited Anne Franks house once when I was in Amsterdam before the pandemic in Christmas 2018. I wasn’t able to go inside because a lot of rooms and places were closed for renovations and repair. Only a limited amount of people could go in and it was sold out so soon. I saw the outside of the house. But maybe it’s just as well. I never came to truly understand or even like Anne’s story until the pandemic started. Maybe one day I’ll go back to Amsterdam and to Anne’s house and if I do I’ll go in knowing and cherishing her story by heart giving the best respects I can possibly give

@@carolinebergin4633 I wasn't trying to be rude, I was just curious. I'm in my 40's and learned about it long before I graduated. Probably before high school. We took a trip to the Holocaust museum when learning about that period in history. Keep seeking knowledge and learning. It's a never ending journey, I can tell you. I don't know everything and never will. One person we didn't learn about in school was Josef Mengele, from that same chunk of history. It wasn't until I heard a song from Slayer called Angel of Death that I had to seek out information about him. It's not a pretty topic but knowing history (and not trying to erase it and topple statues) is a way to prevent repeating it. I probably had more interest than most in that period of time because my grandfather immigrated here from Germany as a young boy with his parents. It's a stain on human history but worth learning about.

@@Cheese-Hound I never assumed you were being rude. Your curiosity is valid. I ask myself that question a lot myself. The way you just explained your search for knowledge and learning is so beautiful it reminds me so much of what my Dad would say. He loved learning and seeking history so much mostly revolving around wars. Alongside his job he gave lectures at a few universities once in a while. He spent a lot of time trying to teach me these stories, even telling me that we need to remember history to prevent it from repeating itself. He died a year before I went to the annex, but I keep what he said to heart. There’s a lot of world war 2 history in my family. My Dad was the first born son of a Captain in the Navy during that war and my Mom was born in Germany and her own father saw Hitler himself. I keep looking for more knowledge myself.

Thanks for sharing this tour. It's unimaginable what Anne and her family went through, along with everyone from the Holocaust. It looks like they over modernized the house. I have never been there but have seen the pictures of how it looked before. I think renovating it too much takes some of the authenticity away a little bit. A place like that should never be renovated.
