Aw, I went to Anne Frank house and was profoundly moved by it.
I thought Anne Frank’s family was staying in someone else’s house.
We didn’t end up going cos my mom broke down at the door.
Did he check the attic?
Hazel Brugger ♥️
I lived in Amsterdam for 8 years and never went to the Anne Frank house. I went to a lot of coffee shops though.
The part of the Anne Frank story that bothered me the most, the family member secretly stealing food from the rest of the group, was the only one to survive the camps.
I disagree. Anne Frank house was interesting and hugely memorable. History is worth learning.
To take photos, yes, but to show your respect, no. Same with the twin towers in NYC. If you’re going to take selfies, you need help.
A study published this year showed a large lack of awareness on the Holocaust, with 50% of Dutch people not citing the Netherlands as somewhere that the holocaust took place.

Well I generally don’t take travel tips from a guy working in a cheese shop.
Why is this funny?
Can confirm. I’ve been to the Anne Frank house. And she wasn’t there.
I would say don’t go to Ann Frank house if you haven’t read the book. I’m sure it’s special for those who’ve read it.
We actually found my great grandfather’s name in the street ledger while there. History is cool.
I watched this video because I thought it was about cheese. I’m disappointed.
Pan to that creepy fucker was hilarious
The „reporter’s“ name is Hazel Brugger, she is a Swiss-German-American comedian active mostly in German/Germany.
Most people know her from the „Heute Show“ which is a weekly late night satire show similar to the Daily Show in the US.
This was from her YouTube channel, from a series where she travels to various places in Germany/Europe and show strange/rare/interesting places.
I thought he said “and she’s not dead” coupled with his “Tromp” chefs coat, I was really trying to figure out this Dutch conspiracy theorist.
Mac DeMarco looking fucker giggling is the best part
I found it rather interesting to go there. The scale or the space – the feel- is impossible to get without actually walking thru it.
Second guy looks high af
You all complaining this wasn’t funny are missing the joke. He’s a cheese salesman who says that Anne Franks house is overrated because…. Cheese not there, you know.
Hazel!
I went there and also disagree for a number of reasons. The true overestimated place is the Heineken Factory tour. What a waste of time…
For a moment I wondered how she kept a straight face but then I remembered she’s swiss.
I’ve got a flashback, when Justin Biber visited the house, he wrote “she would’ve been beliber “, or something close. Cringiest thing people said about Anne Frank before I have seen this one.
FYI, for those wanting to check on another house, used to hide people in the 2nd world war, there is the Corrie ten Boom house in Harlem (15 minutes by train from Amsterdam Central) with a secret hidden space behind a wall, which you can climb into, during the tours. In my experience, there’s a lot less people and the tour is free, I believe. You can make a reservation on their website: [https://www.corrietenboom.com](https://www.corrietenboom.com)
Also, they do have furniture, giving it a different vibe.
Reminds me of Beethoven Haus in Bonn. It’s just a house.
Same goes for the coliseum. It’s just a run down sports arena, and the gladiators aren’t there.
I thought it was an amazing place…but I had tickets for first thing in the morning and didn’t have to wait in line for 5 hrs.
Anne Frank House was one of the most memorable, moving, and powerful moments I had in Amsterdam. I would definitely go again. This guy sounds salty, or should I say he sounds cheesed off.
He’s not being mean, you know. He’s just being Dutch.
Germans after checking the house the first time:
