The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza
411 Elm St., Dallas, TX, 75202
The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza is at 411 Elm St. within the former Texas School Book Depository building, where evidence was found that linked to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The museum chronicles the assassination and legacy of Kennedy, interprets the Dealey Plaza National Historic Landmark District and the John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza, and presents contemporary culture within the context of presidential history. An audio tour, available in seven languages, ASL and a youth version in English, directs visitors through the sixth floor of the former Texas School Book Depository building. The “sniper's perch,” where police found three spent cartridge shells shortly after the November 22, 1963 shooting, has been reconstructed and enclosed in glass. Near the end of the self-guiding tour, visitors also view the glass-protected corner staircase, where a Mannlicher-Carcano rifle was found. In addition, the museum showcases videos, artifacts and models that educate visitors about such topics as the social culture of the ‘60s and Kennedy's impact on America. Official forensic and ballistics tests, as well as other evidence used by the Warren Commission and other groups that investigated the assassination, are presented. Special exhibits are frequently presented in a seventh-floor gallery. Food is available. Time: Allow 1 hour, 30 minutes minimum.

Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza
The Sixth Floor Museum chronicles the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963, through exhibits and programming presented within the former Texas School Book Depository building. The main exhibit, JFK and the Memory of a Nation, is on the 6th floor. Temporary exhibits and public programs are presented on the 7th floor. While visiting, stop by the Museum Stores + Café.

- The Sixth Floor Exhibit
Cost of Admission
Exhibits on the seventh floor, around dealey plaza, jfk conspiracy theories, final thoughts.
After you purchase your tickets there is an elevator that takes you up to the sixth floor and drops you off at the start of the exhibit. From there you twist and turn through a maze of information that covers everything from JFK’s life before being elected, his presidency, his death, the investigation and even some of the conspiracy theories.
There is a personal audio tour that is part of the admission fee. I call it a personal audio tour because it is a little remote that you wear around your neck which has a set of headphones plugged into it. As you move along through the exhibit each section is numbered, so once you’ve completed a section you can move on to the next or replay a previous section. The audio is helpful because it will explain the significance of so many of the different films, photographs and artifacts.
In the southeast corner of the sixth floor there is a section closed off with plexiglass walls. Inside this section is where they found the shell casings which they believe were used to kill President Kennedy. Inside the plexiglass walls they have kept all of the original flooring, walls and windows and set it up to look just as it did the day President Kennedy was killed.
The Sixth Floor Museum is located on the sixth and seventh floors of an early 20th-century warehouse at Dealey Plaza in 1963, which is one of Dallas’ best museums and most popular attractions. Since its opening day on Presidents Day 1989, the Museum has welcomed more than 6 million tourists from around the world. People of all ages come here to seek information and understand about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and much interesting information that they want.
The Museum at Dealey Plaza records the assassination and heritage of President John F. Kennedy; understands and supports the Dealey Plaza National Historical milestone District and the John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza, and presents modern culture within the perspective of presidential past. So if you want to know more about the life, death, and legacy of President John F. Kennedy then this is the place for you. With the help of artifacts, photographs, documentary movies, main evidentiary areas, eyewitness accounts and interactive educational programs offered on both the sixth and seventh floors all assist in providing an insight into the life & death of President John F. Kennedy. Get to discover the history through one of the world’s most important repositories of original photographs, film and tape footage, documents and artifacts all connected to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy—a repeatedly growing, versatile collection of approximately 35,000 stuff all depicting the past history.
When we visited the museum the cost was $16 per person, and as I mentioned before that includes the free audio tour. Of course, prices always change, so I would check the site if you plan to visit the museum . They also mention that you should consider purchasing tickets online because the museum can get crowded on weekends and holidays. I definitely agree with this because during our visit the line started outside the door and then wrapped around a couple times once we got inside. I’m pretty sure they can only allow a certain number of people into the exhibit for safety reasons, so that definitely slows down the line.
When we were visiting, there wasn’t really much to see on the seventh floor. One thing that you can do on the seventh floor that you can’t do on the sixth floor is take pictures. Even though there wasn’t a lot to take pictures of, it gave us the ability to look out the window in the southeast corner, just one floor above where the shots were fired. The photo below is taken looking out the window from the seventh floor. If you look in the middle of the street below you can see the white “X” which marks the spot where President Kennedy was fatally shot.

One of the great things about the museum is that it is set in the exact spot where everything happened. So once you take the time to see the photos and videos and experience everything there is within the museum, then you can walk right outside and stand in the exact spot where everything happened.
You can stand on the side of the road just as spectators did over 50 years ago and see the white “X” that is now painted in the middle of the road (which I mentioned previously). For us it was all so crazy to stand there and try to understand how something like this could ever happen especially with all of the security.
We ended up walking around Dealey Plaza and even took some pictures of the famous “Grassy Knoll” where many witnesses claim the fatal shot came from. In some videos you can see people running up the grassy knoll to see where and who the gun shots possibly came from.
I’m not really going to cover any of the conspiracy theories, but if you’re interested, go to Google and type in “JFK Conspiracy Theories” and you’ll get more information than you could possibly read or watch. Lynn and I have actually done this quite a few times and even spent a couple months watching movies that we rented through Netflix or found on YouTube.
If you do this, you’ll learn that there are numerous theories out there that include hired hit men from abroad, CIA cover ups, and a far right southern group that plotted to kill JFK. Another theory even believes that Lyndon Johnson (Vice President) knew of the assassination attempt and may have been part of it.
![dealey plaza tours](https://www.visitdallas-fortworth.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/jfk-murder-dallas.jpg)
The interesting thing for me is that I never really thought about it before I visited The Sixth Floor Museum. To me it was all fact… Lee Harvey Oswald shot the President and Jack Ruby shot Oswald. That is what I was taught in school so I never thought of it any other way. The museum actually tells it this was as well, and for the most part you’ll believe this same story after walking through the Sixth Floor Exhibit. The museum makes you believe that the report put together by the Warren Commission cleared any doubt as to whether or not Oswald was the only shooter involved in JFK’s assassination. According to the report, Oswald was the only shooter.
I don’t know if I believe any of the conspiracy theories that are out there, but I do believe there are numerous things missing from the investigation. There are a lot of other people that have spent their entire lives researching the JFK assassination, so I’ll let them handle the conspiracy theories. One of them, Robert Groden, still sits in Dealey Plaza nearly every weekend and sells books, DVDs, and CDs based on his theories about the JFK assassination.
The Sixth Floor Museum was so much more interesting than I ever thought it would be. Not only that, it added hours of interesting research and entertainment to our lives well after we visited the museum. I still don’t think that Lynn and I are done researching the topic. It’s something that we both find very interesting and almost can’t believe that it’s still a hot topic among certain groups of people… even 50 years later!
I definitely recommend visiting The Sixth Floor Museum, especially if you’re in the Dallas area. The museum was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Dallas. If you plan to visit the museum, I would also recommend taking a little extra time to walk around Dealey Plaza and explore the area where one of the most talked about events in United States history took place.

This tour delves into one of the most intriguing mysteries of our time: the world-changing assassination of President Kennedy. We explore the facts and examine the incredible coincidences and timing that culminated in the event that shocked the world.
During the tour, we will walk the path that President John F. Kennedy’s motorcade took on Nov 22, 1963, visit Dealey Plaza where the president was assassinated, The Grassy Knoll (the epicenter of many conspiracy theories), and the ground of the School Depository (location of the alleged shooter).
This is a private tour, just you and your group. All our tours are led by certified expert local guides.
About: Private JFK assassination WALKING TOUR
It's been more than a century since his birth and half-century since his death, but John F. Kennedy remains a formidable presence in politics and popular culture. His image is juxtaposed with that of Lincoln, the other great U.S. President felled by a bullet (sorry, Garfield and McKinley).
JFK's tragic pop icon peers, Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley, have their worshippers, but JFK's is an utterly unique story -- of family, politics, war brinksmanship, Hollywood hanky-panky, chronic illness, assassination, and a conspiracy subplot that won't die.
JFK was the youngest-ever elected President (age 43), the first Roman Catholic, and the youngest-ever President to die (age 46). Kennedy's legacy is preserved and distorted in countless ways. Politicians quote his speeches, speculate on his good works cut short, or simply invoke his name.
During our tour, we will revisit the events leading up to November 22nd, 1963, and the aftermath of the president’s murder to provide perspective and new insight into the event that changed American history and the world’s political landscape. We will cover Kennedy’s legacy, Lee Oswald, and Jack Ruby's roles in the assassination, and the importance of the Zapruder Film, likely the most famous video ever recorded.
And no visit to the Dealey Plaza is complete without looking at the Xs on Elm and stopping at the grassy knoll. Was there a second shooter? Did Oswald kill Kennedy? Did he act alone? Decide for yourself!

![dealey plaza tours View of Dealey Plaza, the plaza is a significant part of Dallas history.](https://d1mxaomdth3elf.cloudfront.net/com/tours/jfk-assassination-walking-tour/dealey-plaza.jpg)
Dealey Plaza is a significant part of Dallas history. The site marks the birthplace of Dallas, originally founded by John Neely Bryan in the 1840s. Almost a century later, as part of President Franklin Roosevelt’s Works Progress Administration, the familiar white concrete colonnades and triple underpass were constructed, creating a vehicular park to serve as gateway to the city. The project was spearheaded by civic leader George Bannerman Dealey. After G.B. Dealey died in 1946, a bronze statue to honor him was installed in the park that already bore his name.

Magic Bullet Vs. Single Bullet
The parade, despite the misgivings of everyone around Kennedy, had been a success. Thousands of people stood along the route waving at the president as his car rode past. When the long line of 17 cars made a right on Houston, Nellie Connally tipped her head back to the president and said “Mr. President, you can’t say the people of Dallas don’t love you”...

On Nov. 22, 1963, shots from Lee Harvey Oswald's gun echoed through Dealey Plaza as President John F. Kennedy's motorcade turned off of Houston Street onto Elm. Today, this scenic green space in downtown Dallas is visited every year by thousands who gather to honor the 35th president.
This tragic day in United States history has been immortalized on the sixth floor of the former Texas School Book Depository, where Oswald pulled the trigger 60 years ago. The Sixth Floor Museum (which actually occupies the sixth and seventh floors of the building) houses exhibits detailing JFK's life, presidency and assassination, as well as the history of the 1960s.
According to many recent visitors, one of the most fascinating exhibits is a recreation of Oswald's set-up at the southeast window, accompanied by touch screens that detail the events of that day. (If you're interested in seeing Dealey Plaza and Elm Street the way Oswald saw it that day, you can watch the live Dealey Plaza Cam, a streaming webcam set up at the very window through which Oswald tracked the presidential motorcade.) Reviewers say this is a must-visit when in Dallas, but also bemoan high ticket prices and caution that the museum can get quite crowded.
To reach the museum, you can hop on any one of the DART lines to West End station, which connects to all DART lines. The museum sits three blocks west of the station. In addition to restrooms, there is a museum shop on-site. You can combine a visit here with several of the city's other top attractions by signing up for one of the best Dallas tours . To learn more about the museum and Dealey Plaza, visit the official website .
Sixth Floor Museum hours and tickets
You can visit the museum Wednesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The museum recommends setting aside at least 90 minutes to tour the exhibits. Admission to the museum costs $25 for adults, $23 for seniors ages 65 and older, and $21 for youths ages 6 to 18; kids 5 and younger enter for free. Advance timed ticket purchase is highly recommended.

#1 Klyde Warren Park
U.S. News Insider Tip: For a fun way to get to the park, take the McKinney Avenue Trolley. This is Dallas’s last remaining streetcar line, running (free of charge) from downtown through Uptown. The trolley passes the city’s most popular attractions, including Klyde Warren. – Justine Harrington
With free Wi-Fi access, weekly events, a dog park, walking trails, a children's park, food trucks and a performance pavilion, Klyde Warren Park is not your typical green space. Built over the Woodall Rodgers Freeway and managed by the Woodall Rodgers Park Foundation, the urban space in the heart of Dallas hosts events ranging from yoga and concerts to outdoor films and holiday celebrations like tree lightings and trick-or-treating. The park, which sprawls across more than 5 acres, can also be reserved for public or private events – the skyline and location make it an ideal backdrop for weddings and concerts.

History of Kemerovo Oblast
People began to settle in what is now the Kemerovo region several thousand years ago. The indigenous peoples of the region were Shortsy and Teleuts. In 1618, Russians founded Kuznetsky stockaded town in the south of the present region to protect Russian lands from the raids of the Mongols and Jungars. In 1698, Mariinsk was founded.
In 1721, Mikhailo Volkov found “burning mountain” (a burning coal seam) on the banks of the Tom River and thus became the person who discovered the Kuzbass coal deposits. Industrial development of this land started at the end of the 18th century.
During the 19th century, the territory of the Kemerovo region was part of the Tomsk province. During this period, the first industrial enterprises appeared here: Tomsk ironworks, Gavrilovsky and Gurievsky silver plants, Suharinsky and Salairsky mines. Construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway was one of the main reasons for the rapid development of the local industry.
More historical facts…
In Soviet times, the region became part of the West Siberian krai, and then - Novosibirsk oblast. The development of the coal, metallurgical and chemical industries continued: Kemerovo Coke Plant, Kuznetsk Metallurgical Plant, a lot of new mines. The workers’ settlements built near the industrial enterprises quickly obtained the status of towns: Kiselyovsk, Osinniki, Krasnobrodsky, Tashtagol, Kaltan, Mezhdurechensk and others.
During the Second World War, this region was a major supplier of coal and metal. More than 50 thousand tanks and 45 thousand aircraft were produced using steel from Novokuznetsk. 71 industrial enterprises were evacuated to Kuzbass from the occupied regions, most of them remained in the region after the war.
In 1943, Kemerovo Oblast became a separate region that included 17.5% of the territory and 42% of the total population of Novosibirsk Oblast. After the war, the region continued to grow rapidly. On September 18, 1984, about 100 km from Kemerovo, a peaceful underground nuclear explosion was carried out, the power of the explosive device was 10 kilotons.
In the 1990s, the region’s economy declined. However, by the end of the 20th century, there were some positive developments - the development of the coal industry in the first place. Special attention was paid to the development of open-pit coal mining, as a more effective and safe way.
