religious beliefs: Jewish, Catholic and Protestant.• In 1933, Hitler takes over the German government. • The family begins to worry about what is going to happen to
their lives.• Persecution of Jews and economic crisis begins to cause
many issues for the Franks.• They begin to look for way to escape.
Emigrating to the Netherlands1933 - 1940
• Otto Frank sets up a business in Amsterdam.• Edith, Margot, and Anne follow him to the Netherlands shortly
after.• They find a place to live and begin to feel safe again.• Margot and Anne begin school, Otto works at his business, and
Edith takes care of the household.• Then World War II breaks out.• Germany invades the Netherlands on May 10, 1940.• Again, the Frank family is in danger.
“In the Netherlands, after those experiences in
Germany, it was as if our life was restored to
us. In those days it was possible for us to start
over and to feel free.” – Otto Frank
German Invasion1940 - 1942
• In May of 1940, The Netherlands are invaded by Germans; the Frank family is now going to experiences some big changes.
• Restrictions keep mounting, for the Jews in general and for Otto’s business.• Business ownership is banned, Jews must attend a separate school,
forced to wear a yellow star to indicate they are Jewish, anti Jewish laws.
• When Margot receives a call for a German work camp on July 5th 1942, Otto and Edith decide the dangers have become too great for them to stick around.
• They take their family into the hiding place that they have been preparing for months. (The secret annex)
“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;
Jews were forbidden to ride in cars, even their own;
Jews were required to do their shopping between 3:00 and 5:00 P.M.;
Jews were required to frequent only Jewish-owned barbershops and beauty parlors;
Jews were forbidden to be out on the streets between 8:00 P.M. and 6:00 A.M.;
Jews were forbidden to attend theaters, movies or any other forms of entertainment;
Jews were forbidden to use swimming pools, tennis courts, hockey fields or any other athletic fields;

Jews were forbidden to sit in their gardens or those of their friends after 8:00 P.M.;
Jews were forbidden to visit Christians in their homes;
Jews were required to attend Jewish schools, etc.”
~ Anne Frank
The Hiding Place1942 - 1944
• The hiding place is located in an empty section of the building owned by Otto Frank's company. While business continues, as usual, in the front part of the building, there are people hiding in the annex out back.
• Other than the Franks there are four other people residing in the secret annex with them.• Mr. and Mrs. Van Daan, their son Peter, and Mr. Dussel• Four of Otto’s employees help them into hiding. • The annex is hiding behind a bookshelf.
• Everyone lives in constant fear that they will be discovered. • No one has any idea how long they will have to stay hidden. • In the beginning, the atmosphere in the Secret Annex is very pleasant, but
the first conflicts quickly arise. • The people in hiding have to stay indoors around the clock. • They must also be extremely quiet during the day when people are at work
in the warehouse downstairs. Because the waste pipes for the toilet run right through the warehouse, the toilet is flushed as little as possible.
• There is a lot of tension and they often bicker with one another.
The Secret Annex
• Anne Frank starts keeping a diary from her thirteenth birthday. • She takes the diary to the hiding place
• She spends more time thinking about life, and records her thoughts in her diary.• Anne doesn’t just keep a diary during her time in the Secret Annex, she also writes short stories and
collects her favorite sentences by other writers in a notebook. • She hopes for her diary to be published as a novel after the war. (That’s why she starts rewriting it )• Anne never manages to finish it, she's discovered and arrested before she completes her work.• On March 16, 1944, she realizes: “The nicest part is being able to write down all my thoughts and
feelings, otherwise I'd absolutely suffocate.”
The Arrest• On August 4, 1944 everyone in the secret annex is arrested.• They are deported first to the Westerbork transit camp and
then to Auschwitz. • At Auschwitz Anne ends up in the same barracks as her mother
and sister (Margot).• Later, Anne and Margot are taken to Bergen-Belsen. • Anne dies in the Bergen-Belsen camp in February 1945, at the
age of 15.• Otto Frank is the only person from the secret annex to survive
the camps, everyone else dies.
Otto Frank describes that moment: “It was around ten-thirty. I was upstairs with the Van Daan’s in Peter’s room and I was helping him with his schoolwork…
Suddenly someone came running up the stairs…then the door opened and a man was standing right in front of us with a
gun in his hand and it was pointed at us… Downstairs everyone was gathered. My wife, the children, the Van Daan’s
stood their with their hands up.”
1944
Otto Frank Returns1945
• Once Auschwitz is liberated, Otto returns to Amsterdam. • On his way back to Amsterdam, he hears of Edith’s death. • Once he arrives in Amsterdam, he goes to see Miep and Jan
Gies.• He hopes Anne and Margot might still be alive, but then he
discovers that they too did not survive the war.• Miep gives him Anne’s diaries. • Anne had wanted her diary to be published after the war,
and her wish would come true.
Hearing of Anne’s death, Miep gives the diary to Otto, telling him ‘This is your daughter Anne’s legacy.’
Publication of Diary1947
• Otto reads from Anne’s diary that she wishes to publish a book about her time in the secret annex.
• At first he is uncertain about it, but then decides to have it published.
• The diary is then adapted into a play, a novel, and a film.• People all over the world are now able to hear Anne’s story.
“If she had been here, Anne would have been so proud”
