john f. kennedy national historic site

自然呈现，不加雕饰，客观的历史。虽然空间较小，但参观者井然有序，不喧哗嬉闹，显出对历史和今人的尊重，以及高尚的文化素质。

JFK's birthplace, a modest home on a beautiful sycamore-lined street, with knowledgeable and friendly National Park Rangers to share the family's history and guide you through the house. A really lovely, educational, fun and inexpensive piece of Americana!

It's a place to learn about American political history, and also why JFK is so missed and revered. I was totally inspired in the place by everything, but especially by a few JFK quotes - just so inspirational and precious! The building has a very nice atmosphere - it's a good place for both adults and children (though probably not for babies and toddlers).

This site begins its tour with a video reinforcing Rose Kennedy's dedication to public good and to her family. The house, where JFK lived as a boy, focuses on the daily life of the Kennedy family rather than on their politics, which of course for John came much later. Interesting piece of history in leafy suburbia.

A must if you go to Brookline. The birthplace of several of the Kennedys, includint John F. The house is put back the way it was when they lived there. Park ranger does a great job with the tour. On Beals St. off of Harvard.

Had a chance to preview Edward M Kennedy institute for study of the U. S. Senate to open in March 2015. Every school student should have a chance to see and learn about this important institution: the U.S. Senate.(There was no place else on this website to highlight it.

We finally saw the JFK National Historic Site, and it was brilliant. No matter how you feel about the politics of Jack Kennedy, it's very interesting to learn about him and his family during their early years in Brookline. The tour guide we had was excellent, and filled us in on the details about the family. You are taken throughout the house, and I found it fascinating to be in the rooms of this very famous American family.

We've been staying in Brookline often over the past 3 years, but we finally made it to JFK's birthplace. I'm glad we did. A pretty but nondescript home on a quiet street, it serves as a great illustration of the roots from which came. An interesting 20-minute video preceded a personal guided tour of the home that interestingly gave a more personal look at his upbringing and background. Compared to the official Presidential Library (which we visited the next day) I think I enjoyed this even more.

Great little tour. Easy access from public transportation. Very informative. Thank you to the park rangers on duty!

We spent a Sunday afternoon here...that day easy street parking literally in frontWe watched the movie about Rose Kennedy which was an excellent intro to the house tour.An energetic volunteer led us thru the house. JFK was actually born here and lived here for about 3 years before family moved a short distance into a house twice as big.Actually a very simple house on a still residential street. Sometimes the powerful start modestly.

My daughter has recently re-located to Brookline. We went on our first visit to she her, and I insisted on going here. So glad we did. The staff knows their JFK history. The place is amazing and free of charge!! Parking like most places in Boston is limited, but you can get over that!! This is truly a must see site!!

JFK's birthplace is tucked away in a residential neighborhood in Brookline, MA. We like to visit presidential homes and this one is a nice little find. Like anywhere in Boston, the one and only problem is parking!

I really loved the film and the tour of the house. The park ranger guiding the tour was very professional but amiable.

This attraction is a little hard to get to with public transportation so we took Uber there and it worked out great at little expense. This give you a insider's view of life in the early Kennedy household. JFK lived here to about the age of 6. The ranger guides show pictures of multiple pictures of JFK while he lived there as well as a picture of Rose Kennedy when she dedicated the historic site in 1969 after she refurbished it to look as close as possible to life there between 1917-1923. It was interesting to see the relatively humble beginnings of this starter house. You also visit the bedroom where JFK was born. We all know where and how he passed away so it was heart warming to see where his extraordinary and incredible journey in life began

I had no clue that this existed, but my friend who lives in the area and knows I like learning about history recommended it. The house itself is hidden on a quiet street, but was easy to find. The tour is free and was super informative about the early Kennedy family life. I enjoyed it a lot!
