7. John F. Kennedy Hyannis Museum

DOWNTOWN.   Although Americans know of political and sociological contributions John F. Kennedy made to the nation, his leisure life isn't as broadly familiar. This museum, set in the community of his vacation home, documents JFK's Cape Cod years from 1934 to 1963. Photographs and videos offer details of this era, along with oral histories recorded by his friends. The museum offers a unique perspective on the former president and his family. A gift shop sells commemorative items.   (© 10Best)

Though not as expansive as some Museums named after former presidents, this one focuses on his life on Cape Cod and what he meant/means to the area. There are some cool things and there is a video available in the gift shop that is well worth purchasing. In the same building is the Cape Cod Baseball League Hall of Fame, the premeir summer collegiate baseball league in the country. See the stars of tomorrow. The whole museum/Halol of Fame is worth the take.
