Annelies Marie Frank, more commonly known as Anne Frank, was born #ThisWeekInHistory in 1929 in Frankfurt, Germany. Frank is one of the most iconic figures of the millions of Holocaust victims. She wrote her diary from June 1942 (when she received it as a present on her thirteenth birthday) to August 1944. In the diary, she describes life in hiding in an Amsterdam attic before she was deported to Bergen-Belsen, where she perished. The diary has become one of the central symbols of the Holocaust and the sufferings of humanity. 📷 Margot and Anne Frank, Germany 1933. Via jewishwomensarchive #annefrank #jewishpeople #holocaust
