Beyonce and Jay Z Tour the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam (@s_c_ @beyonce)



While in Amsterdam for a stop on her "Mrs. Carter Show World Tour," Beyonce and hubby Jay Z paid a solemn visit to the Anne Frank House.


The house, now a museum dedicated to preserving the legacy of the young woman, was where Anne and her family hid from the Nazis before eventually being discovered. Anne made fastidious journal entries during her time in hiding, and her diary is considered one of the most valuable written artifacts for what Jews experienced in Nazi-occupied territory. Anne tragically perished at the Auschwitz concentration camp along with her mother and sister.


"American singer Beyoncé and rapper & producer Jay Z visited the Anne Frank House today. They were more than an hour inside and very impressed by their visit to the hiding place of Anne Frank," wrote the museum on its Facebook page.


Beyonce shared a few pics from her visit to the house on Instagram, and a fan snapped a photo of the couple as the exited the museum. "Came to Anne Frank, saw these two too! #random #celeb," he captioned the pic.
