17 Best Museums in Boston

"The Kennedy family is synonymous with the legacy of Boston, and the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum inspires visitors to deepen their understanding of one of the city’s most famous sons. Guided by Jacqueline B. Kennedy following JFK's assassination, the vision of the library evolved into a modern monument and memorial to the 35th president. Architect I. M. Pei designed the dramatic, white concrete and darkly tinted glass building, which holds curated galleries that move through Kennedy’s formative years to his time in the White House. The exhibitions capture the eloquence of his speeches with audio and video recordings, providing a moving tribute to an inspiring figure." - Elizabeth Wellington, Andrew Sessa
