Anne and Margot died of typhus in Bergen-Belsen camp in early 1945
Anne Frank
German diarist
Anne Frank, born in 1929, was a Jewish girl who, along with her entire family, sought refuge in a concealed annex in Amsterdam during the dark days of World War II to evade the relentless persecution of Jews by the Nazis. On her 13th birthday, Anne received a precious gift – a diary, which became the canvas for her daily life and innermost thoughts.
Tragically, in 1944, their secret sanctuary was betrayed, leading to their capture by the Nazis. The Frank family, along with others in hiding, faced a grim fate. Anne and her sister Margot were ultimately transported to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, where they succumbed to the horrors of typhus in early 1945.
Anne’s diary, discovered by her father Otto Frank after the war, transcended its pages to become an enduring testament to the Holocaust’s atrocities. Her poignant words have touched hearts worldwide, offering a poignant glimpse into the life of a young girl whose dreams and aspirations were tragically cut short by the darkest chapter in human history.
