Annex Prinsengracht 263, House museum and war memorial at Prinsengracht, Amsterdam, Netherlands
The five-floor annex contains hidden rooms behind a movable bookcase, connected to the main building through the second and third levels of Prinsengracht 263.
From July 1942 until August 1944, eight Jewish individuals found refuge in this concealed space while the front house operated as a business.
The building preserves original objects, photographs, and documents that detail the experiences of Anne Frank during the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam.
The museum requires advance online reservations, with entry times scheduled every 15 minutes to manage the flow of visitors through narrow spaces.
The empty rooms of the Secret Annex remain unfurnished at Otto Frank's request to symbolize the void left by millions who never returned.
