The public facilities – such as entrance, payment desk, space for exhibitions, group rooms and catering facilities – have been included in the lowest floors of the new building. The bookshop and restaurant are accommodated in the basement and on the first floor. The cellar is accommodated alongside existing abutments. The constructional depth of the cellar is 3.5 to 6.5 metres. Besides this, 20 HAT homes (one or two person accommodation) have been developed connected to the Anne Frank House.
