About this walk
This route leads you through Amsterdam’s city center, tracing the hidden life of Anne Frank during her time in the Secret Annex. Though she spent years in hiding, several places nearby are deeply tied to her story — from the helpers who supported her family to the world just outside the Annex walls. Walk through Anne’s surroundings and discover echoes of her voice throughout the city. This route was developed by ROODS, turning the city into an open-air museum through immersive walking stories. This route starts and ends near the Secret Annex.
