Step inside Anne Frank's world: New York exhibit honors her legacy

"Anne Frank: The Exhibition" opened at the Center for Jewish History in Manhattan on January 27, 2025, coinciding with International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz's liberation.

The exhibit features a meticulous recreation of the annex where Anne and her family hid, complete with walls adorned with pictures of movie stars, reflecting her youthful optimism.

Visitors can explore the confined space and gain insights into Anne's daily struggles, including her longing for freedom and her teenage experiences.

The exhibition also addresses the enduring mystery of who betrayed the Frank family, presenting various theories without definitive conclusions.

Artifacts such as a letter from Otto Frank pleading for visas to the U.S. highlight the family's desperate attempts to escape persecution.

This immersive experience serves as a poignant reminder of Anne's humanity and the enduring impact of her story.
