Along the way you will learn about the people hiding with Anne in the annex, the helpers, we look at who could have betrayed them, we learn about Dutch resistance fighters and collaborators, of acts of courage and cowardice, and we will look at the events from a German perspective.

Anne's famous diary ends a few days before she, and the others, were suddenly arrested and put on transport, ultimately to her death. In a one-day tour outside Amsterdam we will take you to Camp Westerbork, the transit camp from where Anne Frank, and more than a 100.000 Jewish people with her were sent to Auschwitz and other camps. Not many would return. By following her footsteps, we will learn about many more people, places and events to tell the story of the German occupation of the Netherlands during World War 2. By visiting the sites and telling the stories of normal people under extreme circumstances we will bring the time of the war closer to home. With the use of authentic photos and videos, and by explaining the events from all perspectives, we will find out about the motives of the people involved, and we will ultimately ask the question: Could this happen again in our time?

Inclusions: Private transportation

I pulled the lever on the machine in the courtyard outside the Fries Museum and got a one-page map of the area that was perfect for my use. I like the descriptions and locations. I really liked the super-cool vending machine that I used.
