THE SIXTH FLOOR MUSEUM

President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963. The sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository building was the primary crime scene for the JFK assassination.  


The exhibit provides historical context for the events of November 22, 1963 and the aftermath of the assassination.

Glassed Off Corner of Sixth Floor
On the sixth floor you are able to see an accurately recreated sniper's perch at the southeast corner on the sixth floor overlooking Dealey Plaza.


On display is an Italian-made Mannlicher-Cacano rifle identical to the one found in the northwest corner of the sixth floor by investigators.
