- Dealey Plaza, in the historic West End district of downtown Dallas, Texas (U.S.), is the location of the assassination of John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. The Dealey Plaza Historic District was named a National Historic Landmark in 1993 to preserve Dealey Plaza, street rights-of-way, and buildings and structures by the plaza visible from the assassination site, that have been identified as witness locations or as possible assassin locations.

This would be such an erie location to visit if ever in Dallas. A history changing event of such great magnitude.
I visited there in 1991, eerie, but it was better than the books showed at that time.
I've always wanted to visit this place too if it's God's Will maybe I will one-day.
I was there last week and it’s eerie for sure
When I was there a few years ago , I couldn't believe how small of a area it was , and what a easy shot it was for Oswald .
I agree. The distance from the window to the limo was much closer than what I had always imagined.

Yes, I've been there. Not too far at all for a young man who had rifle experience.
While outside, I took some 8mm footage of cars driving on Elm, with my B&H 414PD camera.
Yes, it does leave an image between the sprockets. With the projector in (regular) 8mm mode, the image between the sprockets is hidden, but by running the footage through the projector in Super 8 mode, the perforations and the image between the sprockets is visible.
That was the last 8mm footage I ever shot. By that time (2004), a four-minute (50') roll, and K-14 processing, cost $30!
I agree..I was there last July and the area looks so much bigger in all the footage I had seen up to actually being there
If Oswald even did it! There's no proof that places him in the room at the time of the shooting! In fact employees who worked there said they saw Oswald in the lunch room basement of the building eating lunch at the time of the shooting. But everything is up for controversy right?
I can't believe they took the FREEWAY sign down! That was a MAJOR part of the History at Dealey!
After it blocked a few clear shots to mob president, they take it away.
I'd like to get an interview with Marina and see how this has impacted her after 50+ years.
Thanks for sharing this. Have always wanted to go there, but haven't made it yet.
The ghosts in this place are screaming.
I always say, "If I ever visit Dallas, I'll check out Dealy..." - I'm not too sure I would, though... Every time I see this cursed place in film documentary clips, vids, news articles, and just regular images shot by passerby through time since, I always get the creeps! Even though nobody that was present on that tragic day in November of 1963 actually perished here (JFK and Oswald died at Parkland, and others passed on at different times at other locales), I still think the whole of Dealy is haunted - in its own way!
Officially JFK died at the Parkland Hospital but really he's effectively DOA. That head shot, captured so gruesomely by the Zapruder film, is clearly unsurvivable and the president is dead the moment that hit... 😪
A part of history forever. + JFK +
And still people don't know and trust from which direction it all happened......and who really did it.
easy kill shot On a large slow moving vehicle hemmed in on both sides
Jack Allen Lawrence shot the fatal shote from the sewer at the right of the car
@@maximemunger5022 it's amazing the amount of people who still don't know this yet
Just visited this. I found it interesting that the white columnar structure on the "grassy knoll" is a monument to early Dallas settlers, and the white monuments in the plaza were 1930s WPA projects honoring a Mr. Dealey who was an important early 1900s Dallas figure. Both predate the assassination! Dallas' actual monument to Kennedy is a modern, kind of creepy "open tomb" cube structure 2 blocks to the east.
Mrs. Kennedy and a world-famous architect, Philip Johnson, designed the open tomb memorial.
At this place, itˋs always Nov. 22, 1963 ! R.I.P. Mr. President 🥀 and much love❤️ from Germany 🇩🇪.
imagine if jfk never died
He’d still be dead because he was born in 1917. If he was still alive, he would be like 103 years old.
Most people don’t live past 100 years old.
He's spending his days rocking with Elvis.
@@shawncrawfordamerica1776 Yeah he more than likely would be dead. But maybe might still be alive. Slim chance though…
Site looks poorly maintained. I looked at the "grassy knoll" on Google Maps and it looked more like the "patchy knoll."
That's because everyone is walking on it
In this video, as in all contemporary videos I have watched, everything seems much smaller and the distances shorter than in Z's film.
Was just there and your right everything is so close!!
I just realised my dad has been to Dallas many times (mostly because of work), but he never told me about the jfk assassination because i think he doesn’t know who jfk is.
Creepyplaza
To plan a kill shot, the first thing an assassin would think/plan of is his paths of escape.
Only a fool would box themselves inside a building after a kill.
The grassy knolls would have been the perfect place to shoot.
The opposite knoll seems smaller and somewhat lower and more level with the descending Elm Street roadway. Possible the throat shot was easier from there than anywhere around the railroad yard knoll
You're not thinking logically, considering Oswald's personality. Oswald left his wedding ring and a large amount of cash (for him) with his wife before he left for work that day, so it's likely he wasn't thinking about escape routes. As it was, what he did do worked exceedingly well: hiding his gun among the boxes on the sixth floor, going downstairs and walking out the front door during the confusion. Any supposed shooter on the grassy knoll would have a much harder time escaping undetected by the railroad workers and policeman on the overpass (and the reason none was ever found is because none was ever there to begin with.)
@@dolnick7 So, you believe that Oswald made the kill shot, even though he was behind the President at that moment, and the kill shot caused the President's body to go backwards, and to his left?
Also, the angle of the shot is not consistent with Oswald's vantage point.
it was
Está mais que demonstrado que o tiro fatal veio do interior da pérgola mesmo atrás do zapruder!
Doable shot if you ask me. Trained marksman, hated his life, hated his country, worked at the building. People just can’t accept it’s that simple, that a nobody took out a somebody.
I see they removed the highway sign that blocked Zapruder's view of the first shot hitting jfk, so, ya know, next time he'll get a good sight of it =\
I was in fifth grade taking a spelling test when we were told.
Is the Texas school book depository open to the public?
Yes...when I was there two years ago it cost $16.00 for admission.
@Timothy Hubener - Yes and no. The former Depository has been the Dallas County Administration Building for more than 30 years. The first five floors of that building are not open to the general public. But the top two floors belong to the Sixth Floor Museum, which opened in 1989 and have always been open to the public. The museum has gradually become the single most comprehensive organization which focuses exclusively on the JFK assassination.
yes. admission was $10 when I went years ago. Probably more now.

R.I.P President Kennedy 🥺
@@stevenwaterfielkd6952 Is it allowed to pay the price and go up 6 floors and shoot a passer-by?
i will visit this place when i'll come to visit Dallas,the travel ban is over.
poor president kennedy,he was killed and i think oswald was not the killer.And jackie that brave woman has suffered until her death.
Is it me, or are the drivers on that road driving a little erratically?
How much of a tourist trap is this?
I've been there. It's an interesting place, but it is overrrun with homeless people and conspiracy nuts who badger you and try to sell you crap.
3:16 I think a second shooter was on the roof of that other building there beyond the school book depository, which I believe is called "Elm Place."
I walked the site when I was in Dallas in 1997. You have the same observation I had. The other nagging question I had is why didn't Oswald shoot while the limousine was driving towards him on Houston St. Seemed like a better, even more clearer vantage point.
@@Seafarer62 If Oswald shot at the limo on Houston, it would have sped up and gone past him. Also it would have been instantly obvious to the Secret Service agents exactly where the shooter was. Oswald was mad but he wasn't stupid.
@@Seafarer62 J. Edgar Hoover made the same observation.
@@aaronz7056 Gerald Ford attributed Oswald's motive to wanting to be as famous as JFK. If Ford was right, and I don't think he was, Oswald could have shot the President, the Governor, and the Veep and Senator Yarborough in the car behind the Secret Service car and then brazenly gloated about it. Shots weren't fired on Houston Street because that's not where the multiple crossfire positions was the most coordinated and advantageous.
RIP JFK and J.D. Tippit.
thats really long shot from that 6th floor building window to the X mark
I'd been there twice in 2004. I was told that the mark where President J.F. Kennedy was shot in the car were re-drawn in the nearby spot.
The car itself is in the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan
It's a doable shot. It's just that that Carcano M38 is such a wonky piece of crap.
Hearing all of the noise from the cars explains why people didn't hear all the gun shots, at least 12
Don't know about twelve, but certainly more than the official number of three.
And people themselves were loud. Cheering, etc.
LOL - no.
Especially the cops motorcycles were the loudest.
Most witnesses said they heard 3 shots, so the liklihood is that there were three
It was a plot
Yes, Oswald quickly hatched this insane plot by himself.
