Anne Frank
What happened to Anne Frank after she was arrested?
“I want to go on living, even after my death” (Anne Frank, House). Anne Frank was a 13-year-old Jewish girl who was one of the many who suffered through the Holocaust. Anne and her family, along with the Van Pels, went into hiding during the Nazi invasion. The Nazis captured and killed over six million people—Jews being their number one target to exterminate. On August 4th, 1944, an anonymous tip was given to the Nazis that the Franks were hiding. At the age of 15, Anne, along with her family and the Vann Pels, were sent to the concentration camps. Life in the camps was cruel during Anne's time in Westerbork, Auschwitz, and Bergen Belsen.
