Hi there! :) you mean you were able to get your ticket inside anne franks house from the anne frank house (museum) itself right? I am going to amsterdam from August 2nd to 7th and all the ticket are sold out for the dates I am there. but the weird part is 6-7 days from now ( as I am typing this comment ) tickets are availble...so I am hoping it'll be the same case in August. This is going to be my 2nd time coming to amsterdam as well...so I hope I'll be able to Enter Anne franks house ( Museum ) this time as I wasn't able to do so the firt time. THANKS IN ADVANCE!

[@AndysAwesomeAdventures]

I was able to get my Anne Frank House tickets inside the house about 20 years ago, but today, you must get them online only. They are no longer sold at the house/museum.

[@michellevickers2845]

I went there and was in tears. I never expected to become so openly upset. It is a very emotional place x

[@CJ-ft9yo]

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.

[@christianealshut1123]

I just realized that also - I was there in about 1982 and the rooms still looked like they were in the original, just with the furniture removed - as if they had just left there in a way. At that time, it was still possible to go into the attic (which now seems to be off-limits) and get the view of the chestnut tree just the way Anne got it (the tree is no longer standing). I had never realized how small and cramped the rooms were - naive as I was (and not being familiar with Dutch architecture), I imagined something the size of our then flat (which used to be 90 square metres) for eight people, but actually it was just about 50 square metres... At any rate, it had a palpable air that is missing from the modernized rooms. Today, I think, you might get much more out of doing the virtual tour, which shows the rooms as they must have looked with the furniture inside.

[@charlesbird781]

I am from Texas and got the same feeling touring the Texas School Book Depository and The Alamo. These sites are sanitized to the point where they feel more like movie sets than where historical events occurred.

[@Mandcfrey]

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.

[@angieburns6241]

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.

[@AndysAwesomeAdventures]

You're welcome. I was first there about 25 years ago but I don't remember what it looked like inside.

[@chisox1085]

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 🙏

[@victoriao.5993]

Otto Frank requested that they don't put furniture in it after he died because I believe he didn't want the floors to get ruined, and when they were caught, the gestapo (Nazis) took everything. The only thing left behind was Anne's diary, which was scattered all over the place. The nazis stole all of their furniture. Otto felt that leaving it empty would also signify how awful they were treated.

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

[@Cheese-Hound]

Assuming you're an adult, how did you make it to adulthood without knowing the history of Anne Frank?

[@carolinebergin4633]

@@Cheese-Hound I’m still a very young adult in my 20s, and I’ve been forced to deal with and without a lot of things in life growing up. But I’ve been making strives of my own and learning about Anne Franks story during the pandemic is one of them

[@Cheese-Hound]

@@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.

[@carolinebergin4633]

@@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. There’s always gonna be something new to learn

[@Cheese-Hound]

@@carolinebergin4633 Life should be a quest for knowledge. If I don't learn at least one thing in a day, I consider it a wasted day. I've been playing guitar for longer than you've been alive and certainly don't know all there is about guitar. I'm a master motorcycle technician with 28 years of experience. I heard someone say I "know everything about motorcycles" in front of a customer. I corrected him by saying that nobody does and anyone who says they do is lying. It's a never ending quest.

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.

The issue with leaving them without plexiglass, is loads of people will try to touch the pictures, which over time would completely ruin them. So they have to have the plexiglass over the pictures to preserve them.

The father's stubbornness made the family go through all this, having fought in the previous war, he would have the right to leave for another country with his family without anything happening to them. But he preferred to stay and hide so as not to leave the country and his assets. The irony is that he was the only one of them who survived.

I was lucky enough to visit the Anne Frank house when I was a child in 2002 or 2003, can’t remember exactly. I don’t remember it being so updated, and I distinctly remember walking up into the attic and seeing all of the rooms. Maybe I am misremembering, but it seems much different now.

I went I think it was in 2003 and me being ignorant. I went on a Contiki tour and we were in the Netherlands for 2 days and I did not realize Anne Frank's house was there. Stupid me. The friends I were with did not even think to go visit there as well on our time off and our tour leader never mentioned it as well. Many years later, I was on vacation in Cuba and I met some people from the Netherlands and we became friends and I told them my regret not being able to visit. They told me that it is very small and that I really should not feel this way. Anyways, fast forward, if anyone has the Oculus Quest, they had actually a tour of the house that you could do virtually. It was something I will never forget and it was very touching.
