Amsterdam Anne Frank (#0127)

A memorial statue of Anne Frank, just outside Westerkerk, a church that is mentioned frequently in Anne Frank's diaries for her being able to see or hear it from her hiding place. My main interest in Anne Frank is in what the story tells us about the efforts of locals to protect Jewish neighbors during the Nazi era. I expected (and was right) that the Anne Frank house exhibit would be flooded with tourists, and thus did not visit it.
