On 12 March 1927 Otto Frank, Edith Frank-Holländer and Margot Frank were registered at the address Marbachweg 307-I.[1] They moved here from Mertonstrasse 4 in Frankfurt, the home of grandmother Alice Frank-Stern. On the ground floor of Marbachweg 307 lived the house's owner Könitzer and his family.[2] According to the address book of 1930, 'Kfm (Kaufman)' Otto Frank occupied 'I and II hoog'. The address book of 1931 only gives Marbachweg 307-I as the address. The telephone number was: Zepp. 53306.[3]

Anne came out of the hospital twelve days after her birth on 24 June 1929. From then on she lived with her parents and Margot on Marbachweg.[4] In and around this house, photos were taken of Anne with her parents, Margot, maternity assistant Frl. Dassing,[5] Omi (= Alice Frank-Stern) and housekeepr Käthi Stilgenbauer. The two surviving photo albums of Margot contain many photos of Margot in and around this house, also with the neighbouring children.[6]

Edith later referred to 'die Jahre im Marbachweg mit die schönsten'.[7] At this address her contact started with the girl next door Gertrud Naumann, who lived with her family at number 303.[8] Edith in particular corresponded a lot with Gertrud after she left for the Netherlands.[9]

On 25 March 1931, the family moved to Ganghoferstrasse 24.[1]
