(Sunday, September 3, 1944; part of The Holocaust during World War II) — Fifteen-year-old Jewish diarist Anne Frank, along with her family and other occupants of the Secret Annex, was deported today from the Westerbork transit camp in the Netherlands to the Auschwitz concentration camp in Nazi-occupied Poland.

Anne was among 1,019 passengers on what would be the last transport of Jews from Westerbork to Auschwitz.

The train consisted of locked cattle cars, each carrying about 70 people. Each carriage had a barrel of water and a toilet barrel.

They would arrive at Auschwitz-Birkenau on the night of Sept. 5/6.

Born in Frankfurt, Germany, in 1929, Anne Frank moved with her family to Amsterdam in 1934 after Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party gained control of Germany. By May 1940, the family was trapped in Amsterdam due to the German occupation of the Netherlands.

As persecution of the Jewish population increased in July 1942, the family went into hiding in concealed rooms behind a bookcase in the building where Frank’s father, Otto Frank, worked. This hiding place is famously known as the “Secret Annex.”

During their time in hiding, Anne kept and regularly wrote in a diary she had received as a birthday present in 1942.

All eight members of the Secret Annex were transported to Westerbork four days after their arrest by the Gestapo on August 4, 1944.
