How old was Anne Frank when she died? How old would Anne Frank be now?

Annelies Marie Frank was born on June 12, 1929, in Frankfurt, Germany, to Edith Hollander Frank (1900-45) and Otto Frank (1889-1980), a successful businessman. Adolf Hitler became chancellor of Germany less than four years later, in January 1933, and he and his Nazi government instituted a series of measures aimed at persecuting Germany’s Jewish citizens.

Anne Frank and the other seven people in the Secret Annex were discovered by the Gestapo, the German secret state police, on August 4, 1944, after 25 months in hiding. The Gestapo had learned about the hiding place from an anonymous tipster (who has never been definitively identified).

The Gestapo sent the Franks, Van Pels, and Fritz Pfeffer to Westerbork, a holding camp in the northern Netherlands, after their arrest. The group was then transported by freight train to the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination and concentration camp complex in German-occupied Poland in September 1944.

Anne and Margot Frank were sent to Bergen-Belsen, a concentration camp in northern Germany, instead of Auschwitz. The Frank sisters died in February 1945. Anne died at the age of 15.

Anne Frank’s exact age would be 92 years if she were alive today.
