Anne Frank's annex where she hid from the Germans until she and her family were betrayed and found. An incredibly well done museum that takes you through the annex upstairs where they stayed, with artifacts and remnants of their time spent there. Anne Frank's quotes on the walls.echo in your head, to think she penned those statements while hiding from such an incredible horror as the holocuast. It was a very powerful experience, and a definite should do if you are in Amsterdam. Her original diary and a book of every dutch jew killed in the holocaust stamp an indelible mark right into your heart.

If there is only one thing that you do while in Amsterdam, I would say that this should be it. The tour through the house gives you a very good education about Anne Frank and includes a lot of original artifacts. It was very moving and there were a couple of times that I felt a little overwhelmed and almost lost it.. If you have never seen anything related to the halocaust in real life, I will tell you that it is profoundly different from watching documentaries on TV and very powerful.
