Texas School Book Depository

Absolutely any Dallas travel and tourism resource will be able to tell you what the significance of Texas School Book Depository is. It has nothing to do with schools or books and nothing to do with it being a depository either. It is a six-storey building that earned its fame after the much-highlighted assassination of president John F. Kennedy in the Dealey Plaza.

It is the building that is believed to be the vantage point from where the Lee Harvey Oswald is supposed to have shot JFK. Nothing has been proven conclusively although three separate US investigations have come to the same conclusion.

The man is supposed to have fired the fatal shot from a window on the sixth floor of this building and a lot of people and visitors in Dallas, Texas, travel to this place just to see the speculated place from where JFK was supposedly assassinated.

Even though there was never any conclusive evidence, the sixth floor has been turned in to a museum dedicated to John F Kennedy and it receives a lot of visitors every year. After the JFK assassination, the building was bought out by the Dallas County and turned in to the museum that it is now. It also bears a plaque that narrates the events of the assassination.

On the plaque, the word "allegedly" has been underlined repeatedly by visitors to the point where it has become a permanent mark on the plaque. It is mainly visited by the many conspiracy theorists that have been intrigued by the JFK assassination. So when it comes to visiting this place, you are likely bump in to a lot of people with a trying-to-solve-hard-problem look on their faces. Other than, it is a nice place to visit.
