Been here 3 times now taking my children over the years. Well worth it, and far better story and value than the Anne Frank house located in Amsterdam. Amazing history and story of hope and forgiveness.

要事先預約,有荷蘭文跟英文兩種。 導覽員很讚。

If you do not know the story of Corrie Ten Boom then you are in for a treat. It is amazing and especially the letter there written by her. Our guide was Martien (I hope I got his name correct) and he did a fantastic job of telling the story. The house helps to bring it to life. If you liked seeing Anne Frank's house you should not miss this.
