Merwedeplein 37-II

Amsterdam

Otto Frank was registered at Merwedeplein from 5 December 1933, and the rest of his family from 7 December.[1] However, it was not until mid-February that they were all reunited in their new home.

In a letter from November, addressed to a former neighbour from Frankfurt, Otto wrote that they had found a house.[2] From spring 1934 on, a number of household helps, subtenants, relatives and acquaintances lived with the family for shorter or longer periods. From 24 March 1939 to 29 January 1942, Edith's mother, Rosalie Holländer-Stern, lived with the family.
