It's a nice little distraction with a lot of Kennedy family facts and photos. There are 5 or 6 rooms; each covering a different period in JFK's life. The events are told in pictures, each with a paragraph or two for you to read, or a simple description. Not much in the way of interaction besides a short 7 minute film and a loop of JFK's inauguration speech. It's self-paced and interesting, but after a while you kinda get tired of reading. There's a gift shop on the way out.
I thoroughly enjoyed my tour of the JFK Museum in Hyannis MA. He was President during my preteen years and the museum brought back memories of the greatest President in my lifetime. He accomplished amazing thing in his short time in office. The pictures of JFK and his family are beautiful.
Make you realize what a great humanitarian he was. Great place for kids and adults. The good ole days of U.S. government.
JFK’s history organized in each room by the years leading up to his assassination, beginning with the marriage of his parents—Rose Fitzgerald & Joseph P. Kennedy. Great pictures of his life in Hyannis. Includes a intro video. Restrooms are located in a separate building.
I wish it had more family artifacts. The museum is lovely, has many beautiful pictures and captions, but is lacking in items that may have been owned by the family and or have historical significance. There also was a lack of flow such that the rooms were quite crowded....
