Corrie ten Boom House

(Netherlands, the - North Holland - Haarlem)

The home of Corrie ten Boom is now a museum! It is perfectly situated in the center of the beautiful old city of Haarlem (Haarlem is a 15 minute train ride west of Amsterdam), Holland.

Much of the house has been refurbished to appear as it did in the 1940's. Visitors can see the actual "hiding place", which is a small area behind a false wall in Corrie's bedroom. This is where Jews and others were safely hidden from the Nazis. The museum also contains a book shop.

For current visiting hours, please visit the website of the museum.
