My wife and I spent a couple of hours here. Very well done. It tells the story of JFK without making him into a hero or martyr. It allows the visitors to draw their own conclusions
Great museum with lots of information concerning JFK's presidency and assassination. Lots of photos and other historical artifacts. Guided audio tour included in the cost of admission.
Was in high school when President Kennedy was shot. Stayed almost two hours to take in the many sites inside the 6th floor and the audio headphones helped to explain the events that happened the day...
