Anne Frank

Today marks the anniversary of Anne Frank's birth. During World War II, her
family hid from German occupying forces. They were eventually discovered, and
Anne later died in a Nazi concentration camp.

Anne Frank left behind a diary chronicling the time of hiding. It has since
become a defining story of World War II. And now you can explore it in even
more depth.

Today's site is an amazing companion to the Diary of Anne Frank. It contains
detailed biographies of the people involved. And you'll see a timeline of the
diary's events.

But most impressively, it accurately recreates Anne Frank's hiding place. You
can interactively move through the rooms. You'll see them as they were at the
time.

Portions of the diary are narrated for each room. The portions are linked to
the rooms where they were likely written. It brings the events to life in a
dramatic way.
