About:This is a permanent exhibition of the tragic events leading up to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The museum was opened in 1989, and is located in the Texas School Book Depository building, where Lee Harvey Oswald allegedly shot the late President. Displays include a moving overview of the time period, and the life and accomplishments of the 35th President of the United States. Enlarged police photographs, news footage, and audio cassettes allow visitors to re-visit the tragic events of November 22, 1963. Who knows who shot JFK (the Warren Commission notwithstanding), but it will give you pause seeing that Oswald's alleged shots may have been easier than photography or newsreels would indicate. Audio cassette tours are available in French, Italian, German, Japanese, Portuguese and Spanish, in addition to English. Special audio tours are designed for children ages 6-12.
Hours:Open Monday Noon-6 Pm Open Tuesday-Sunday 10 Am-6pm
