Hiding in the Secret Annex for two years
This is Fritz Pfeffer. He is a friend of the Frank and Van Pels families. He must go into hiding too. He shares a room with Anne. Anne does not like this very much. The room is already very small!
Another family is looking for a safe place to live. Their names are Hermann and Auguste van Pels, and Peter, their son.
After three days in the Secret Annex, Anne continues writing in her diary. She has a lot of things to tell and writes:
‘So much has happened it’s as if the whole world has suddenly turned upside down[…].’

???Anne loves reading. She reads a lot of books in the Secret Annex. Sometimes she writes about those books in her diary.
In the autumn of 1943 Anne often feels gloomy. When will this war fi nally be over?

In the summer of 1943 Anne really starts to enjoy writing. She starts to write short stories. Sometimes she makes them up, but she also writes stories which really happened in the Secret Annex.
Otto gives Anne a hint. He says that she can copy beautiful sentences from books she has read. Anne likes this idea and starts a ‘Favourite Quotes notebook’.

Anne dies in March
1945 of typhoid
fever, an infectuous
illness. Her mother
and sister also die.
Of all the people in
hiding, Otto Frank
is the only one who
survives the war.
Anne was not the only one,...There were many more Jewish children like Anne Frank. Not every one of them had a hiding place. Not everyone kept a diary. Six million people were killed in the Second World War, among them 1,5 million children.
On 5 May 1945 the German army capitulates. The Netherlands is liberated. A few months later the Second World War has fi nally come to an end. When Otto Frank returns home to Amsterdam, Miep Gies gives him Anne’s diary. Otto publishes the diary two years later.

Anne’s most precious possession is her diary. Writing is very important for her. When you must be quiet and are not allowed to go outside, writing really helps to get things o� your chest.
‘The nicest part is being able to write down all my thoughts and feelings; otherwise, I’d absolutely suffocate.’
Anne wrote this on 16 March 1944.

“My father, the most adorable
father I’ve ever seen, didn’t marry
my mother until he was thirty-six
and she was twenty-five. My sister
Margo was born in Frankfurt am
Main in Germany in 1926. I was
born on 12 June 1929”.
“I started right away at
the Montessori nursery
school. I stayed there
until I was six, at
which time I started in
the first form”.
“Our lives were not without
anxiety, since our relatives in
Germany were suffering under
Hitler‘s anti-Jewish laws”.

attend synagogue and celebrate Jewish
holidays together.
CRISIS In 1929, things in Germany are going badly. There is a
worldwide economic crisis. The crisis starts in the United
States, but soon spreads to other countries, effecting people
in Germany. A politician named Adolph Hitler claims to have
the solution to all of Germany’s problems.
ADOLF HITLER,
LEADER OF GERMANY
Hitler and his Nazi Party come to power in 1933. They
start discriminating against the Jewish community. Hitler
and his generals also start making secret plans for war.
HITLER’S RACIAL
LAWSHitler’s government starts introducing racial laws. According
to the Nazis, ethnic Germans belong to a type of super race.
There is no place in Nazi Germany for Jews, Roma and Sinti,
blacks, gays, Slavs or anyone with a disability.
Many Germans are out of work
and live in poverty. In addition,
Germany has debts from the
First World War (1914-1918).
Germany is forced to pay a
lot of money to the victors of
the war and has lost part of
its territory.
Adolph Hitler and his National Socialist
German Workers’ Party are anti-Semitic.
They hate the Jews and blame them for
all of Germany’s problems. Those that join
Hitler’s party are called Nazis.
Although the Franks feel safe in
Amsterdam, they worry about
what might happen to their
relatives in Germany.
Anne’s parents, Otto and Edith Frank, decide to leave
Germany. They no longer feel safe there because of the
Nazis. In addition, things aren’t going so well for the
Frank family bank, where Otto works.

INTO HIDING
Many Jews attempt to escape the Nazis by going into
hiding. But this is not as easy at it sounds. This family
uses an underground shelter as a hiding-place.
THE DUTCH FAMINE
1943
1944
1942
The liberation of Holland from German occupation comes too
late for the Franks. The Secret Annexe inhabitants are betrayed
by an informant, whose identity would never be established.
They are arrested by SS Officer Karl Josef Silberbauer.
Within a week, the three members of the Van Pels family join
the Franks in the Annexe.
In November, Fritz Pfeffer is the eighth member to join the group
in hiding. He is a Jewish acquaintance of the two families.
Hitler and the Nazis secretly decide to kill all
the Jews in Europe. They build extermination
camps, a type of concentration camp that has been
specially designed to kill people efficiently. Jews are
transported to these camps by train. None of them
know what fate awaits them.
In the winter of 1944-1945,
twenty-thousand people
die of starvation and
cold in the Netherlands.
Conditions are at their
worst in big cities, where
there is almost no food left.
The Secret Annexe inhabitants are aided by Miep Gies (L),
Bep Voskuijl, (R), Victor Kugler (L) and Johannes Kleiman. They
are the only company employees to know that the Franks are in
hiding. In addition, Miep’s husband Jan Gies and Bep’s father
Johan Voskuijl know about the Secret Annexe inhabitants.
“Not being able to go outside
upsets me more than I can say,
and I‘m terrified our hiding place
will be discovered and that we’ll
be shot. That, of course, is a
fairly dismal prospect”.
“Is this really the beginning of
the… liberation? The liberation
we‘ve all talked so much about,
which still seems too good,
too much of a fairy tale ever to
come true? Will this year, 1944,
bring us victory?”
“Hiding…where would we
hide? ...When, where, how…?
... Preoccupied by the thought
of going into hiding, I stuck the
craziest things in the satchel, but
I‘m not sorry. Memories mean
more to me than dresses”.
This is probably the last picture taken
of Anne and Margot.
Bep Voskuijl’s father constructs a
special movable bookcase in order to
hide the entrance to the Annexe.
Otto used this map to keep track of the advance of the Allied Forces in France.

are transported by train to Westerbork,
a transit camp in the Netherlands.
3 September 1944
The Secret Annexe inhabitants
are placed on the last transport to
concentration and extermination camp
Auschwitz in occupied Poland. Otto is
separated from Edith, Margot and Anne.
1 October 1944
Anne and Margot Frank are transferred to
Bergen-Belsen, another camp in Germany.
Otto and Edith are kept at Auschwitz.
Otto Frank is the only former resident of the Annexe to survive the
war. On the long journey from Auschwitz back to Amsterdam, he
finds out that his wife and children are dead. Miep Gies gives him
Anne’s diary, which she found after the family’s arrest and had kept
all that time. Otto decides to publish the diary.
In 1947, Contact
Publishing Company
publishes Anne’s diary
as “The Annexe”, a title
that Anne had thought
of herself. The diary has
since been published
in over 70 languages
worldwide.
“…will I ever become a journalist
or writer? I hope so, oh, I hope so
very much, because writing allows
me to record everything, all my
thoughts, ideals and fantasies”.

Mad Tuesday. The Allied Forces are
advancing towards the Netherlands.
Celebrations break out everywhere – but
the Dutch rejoice too soon. The liberation
doesn’t end up going as swiftly as
expected. Despite high hopes, most of
the Netherlands remains under German
occupation for months and the day
comes to be known as ‘Mad Tuesday’.
The southern part of the Netherlands is
liberated a few weeks later, but a severe
winter awaits the north.

THE NIGHT OF
BROKEN GLASS
In Germany, the Nazis strike out violently against the Jewish
population. On the night of 9 November 1938, they loot Jewish
shops and destroy synagogues. The night would come to be
known as Kristallnacht or the Night of Broken Glass. In the days
that follow, the Nazis round up 30,000 Jewish men and transport
them to concentration camps.
ANTI-JEWISH
LAWSIn 1941, all beaches and public parks become
prohibited areas for Jews.
THE YELLOW STAR
As of May 1942, all Jews in the Netherlands above the
age of 6 are required to wear a yellow Star of David with
the word “Jew” on their clothing. This allowed the Nazis
to quickly identify who was Jewish and who was not.
Jewish men are rounded up and sent off to the East. Nobody
knows what is going to happen to them. The Nazis start
carrying out raids, which means that they close off a street
or neighbourhood and search every house.

also later confides in his secretaries Miep

for help, Miep Gies immediately answers
by saying “Of course”, even though she is
putting herself in grave danger by doing
so. The Nazis severely punish those who
are caught assisting Jews.

1 September 1939
Germany invades Poland. England and
France declare war on Hitler. This is the
start of war in Europe. Hitler promises not
to invade the Netherlands, but many
people, especially Holland’s Jewish
population, fear he will not keep his word.
10 May 1940
The German army invades Holland, despite
Hitler’s promise. After five days of fighting,
the Germans bomb Rotterdam and the Dutch
army surrenders.
25 February 1941
The February Strike: In February, the Nazis
round up 427 Jewish men and transport
them to concentration camps. Many people
in Amsterdam strike in order to protest
against the Nazis’ actions. The Nazis strike
the protesters down with extreme violence.“After the pogroms in 1938, my two
uncles (my mother’s brothers) fled
Germany, finding safe refuge in North
America. My elderly grandmother
came to live with us”.
“Our freedom was severely restricted
by a series of anti-Jewish decrees:
Jews were required to wear a yellow
star; Jews were required to turn in
their bicycles; Jews were forbidden
to use trams; […]
“I was stunned. A call-up:
everyone knows what that
means. Visions of concentration
camps and lonely cells raced
through my head”.

start of war in Europe. Hitler promises not
to invade the Netherlands, but many
people, especially Holland’s Jewish
population, fear he will not keep his word.
10 May 1940
The German army invades Holland, despite
Hitler’s promise. After five days of fighting,
the Germans bomb Rotterdam and the Dutch
army surrenders.
25 February 1941
The February Strike: In February, the Nazis
round up 427 Jewish men and transport
them to concentration camps. Many people
in Amsterdam strike in order to protest
against the Nazis’ actions. The Nazis strike
the protesters down with extreme violence.“After the pogroms in 1938, my two
uncles (my mother’s brothers) fled
Germany, finding safe refuge in North
America. My elderly grandmother
came to live with us”.
“Our freedom was severely restricted
by a series of anti-Jewish decrees:
Jews were required to wear a yellow
star; Jews were required to turn in
their bicycles; Jews were forbidden
to use trams; […]
“I was stunned. A call-up:
everyone knows what that
means. Visions of concentration
camps and lonely cells raced
through my head”.
5 July1942
Margot receives a call-up notice from
the SS. She has to go to a labour camp
in Nazi Germany. Her parents decide to
go into hiding.
“My father, the most adorable
father I’ve ever seen, didn’t marry
my mother until he was thirty-six
and she was twenty-five. My sister
Margo was born in Frankfurt am
Main in Germany in 1926. I was
born on 12 June 1929”.
“I started right away at
the Montessori nursery
school. I stayed there
until I was six, at
which time I started in
the first form”.
“Our lives were not without
anxiety, since our relatives in
Germany were suffering under
Hitler‘s anti-Jewish laws”.

attend synagogue and celebrate Jewish
holidays together.
CRISIS In 1929, things in Germany are going badly. There is a
worldwide economic crisis. The crisis starts in the United
States, but soon spreads to other countries, effecting people
in Germany. A politician named Adolph Hitler claims to have
the solution to all of Germany’s problems.
ADOLF HITLER,
LEADER OF GERMANY
Hitler and his Nazi Party come to power in 1933. They
start discriminating against the Jewish community. Hitler
and his generals also start making secret plans for war.
HITLER’S RACIAL
LAWSHitler’s government starts introducing racial laws. According
to the Nazis, ethnic Germans belong to a type of super race.
There is no place in Nazi Germany for Jews, Roma and Sinti,
blacks, gays, Slavs or anyone with a disability.
Many Germans are out of work
and live in poverty. In addition,
Germany has debts from the
First World War (1914-1918).
Germany is forced to pay a
lot of money to the victors of
the war and has lost part of
its territory.
Adolph Hitler and his National Socialist
German Workers’ Party are anti-Semitic.
They hate the Jews and blame them for
all of Germany’s problems. Those that join
Hitler’s party are called Nazis.
Although the Franks feel safe in
Amsterdam, they worry about
what might happen to their
relatives in Germany.
Anne’s parents, Otto and Edith Frank, decide to leave
Germany. They no longer feel safe there because of the
Nazis. In addition, things aren’t going so well for the
Frank family bank, where Otto works.

Anne quickly masters Dutch. There are also other German-Jewish
children in her class.
“I lived in Frankfurt until I was four.
Because we‘re Jewish, my father
emigrated to Holland in 1933, when
he became the Managing Director
of the Dutch Opekta Company,
which manufactures products used
in making jam…Margot went to
Holland in December, and I followed
in February, where I was plonked
down on the table as a birthday
present for Margot”.
Otto’s company sells a preparation
called Opekta, which is used in making
homemade jam.
Those are happy years for
Anne and Margo. They adore
their father, who can tell the
best stories. “Papa with his
offspring” is the caption Anne
later gives this picture in
her album.
