We share our knowledge about Anne Frank

Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Anne Frank House launches the Anne Frank Knowledge Base. This online knowledge base in Dutch and English offers professionals and others a wealth of information about the history of Anne Frank and the seven other people who lived in hiding in the Secret Annex, all set in the context of the Second World War and the persecution of the Jews. The knowledge base can be accessed directly or through Anne’s World, an online world map with events and stories.

The Anne Frank Knowledge Base

Any information about events, persons, locations, or topics can be retrieved by simply typing the relevant keywords in the knowledge base. One can also wander from one entry to the next. The knowledge base contains about 1,100 items, 300,000 words, and 300 pictures. The Anne Frank Knowledge Base will never be ‘finished’: new information is always added to the knowledge base, and the inclusion of items from the collection and videos is on the agenda.

Otto Frank’s return

Otto Frank’s return from Auschwitz to Amsterdam is one of the stories that can be tracked in Anne’s World. On 27 January 1945, 78 years ago today, the Russians liberated the Auschwitz concentration and extermination camp. Otto Frank, Anne’s father, was one of around 8,000 prisoners who had been left behind, most of them critically ill. After regaining some of his strength, Otto left for the Netherlands on 5 March 1945: a three-month journey. In Anne’s World, you can track his journey.


Anne’s World and the Anne Frank Knowledge Base have been made possible by the Mondriaan Fund.

But we do know a lot about this period, based on eyewitness accounts and documents. The video series After the Arrest follows Anne’s life story after the period in hiding.
