The Anne Frank House (Anne Frank Huis) is a house-museum in Amsterdam, i.e. the house where the young German Jew Anne Frank and her family remained hidden for two years (from 1942 to 1944), together with the Van Daan family , during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. The house is nicknamed "the secret accommodation" (Achterhuis, literally "back home" from the Dutch). The building belongs to the "Anne Frank Foundation", which bought it in 1957. This museum brings to mind what was written in the famous "Diary of Anne Frank".
