Jfk Assassination Rifle
The Sixth Floor Museum exploring the life and death of JFK
The 22nd of November 1963 was a fateful day in the history of the United States; President John F. Kennedy was riding through the streets of Dallas in a motorcade. The motorcade was winding itself in front of Dealey Plaza in Dallas on its way towards the Dallas Trade Mart. It seemed like a perfect day the President was riding in a convertible seated next to him was the beautiful Jackie Kennedy and joining the first couple were Texas Governor John Connelly and his wife Nellie. The ecstatic crowd was waving and brandishing American flags to salute perhaps one of the most popular President’s the country had ever seen.
As the presidential motorcade turned from Elm Street onto Houston Street the sound of gunfire rang out, instantly killing President John F. Kennedy and injuring Governor Connelly. According to a journalist who was riding behind the Presidents car a third shot was fired and a muzzle of a rifle could be seen from the Sixth Floor of a building belonging to the Texas Book Depository Building. According to the commission that was meant to investigate the assassination a second gunman had fired from the grassy knoll on the north western side of the plaza.
Today Dealey Plaza sees many visitors coming to explore the site of the assassination and the top two floors of the Texas Book Depository building have been converted into museum known as the Sixth Floor Museum which chronicles the tragic events of that fateful day. Having being designated as a National Landmark visitors to the Dealey Plaza will notice that the traffic and street lights are the same as he ones used in 1963.
The museum is meant to be educational as well as inspirational. It holds a number of document, pictures and videos that document the life of John F. Kennedy who was the only American President to be killed while in office apart from Abraham Lincoln. The museum is fascinating and explains the findings of the commission investigating into the death of Kennedy as well as providing an understanding of the background of the killer: Lee Harvey Oswald.
This museum which explores one of the most moving incidents in the history of American politics is located close to a number of hotels in Dallas. Being the most visited area of the city by tourists it is evident why a large number of Dallas hotels have sprung here in this area.
