Miep Gies and her husband Jan were two of the helpers of Anne Frank and the others in hiding. Miep felt helping them was her human obligation. Saying no was simply not an option. She also talks about the sorrow she and her husband Jan Gies felt after the war, about losing seven of the eight people in hiding.

About the Anne Frank House
The Anne Frank House was established on 3 May 1957 in cooperation with Otto Frank, Anne Frank’s father. We are an independent non-profit organisation that runs a museum in the house where Anne Frank went into hiding and we try to increase awareness of Anne’s life story all over the world, encouraging people to reflect on the dangers of antisemitism, racism, and discrimination, and the importance of freedom, equal rights, and democracy.
