Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate

Located adjacent to the JFK Library and Museum, the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate offers another view of the workings of the U.S. government, this one through the lens of the Senate and one of its most influential members. Interactive exhibits take visitors through a day in the life of a senator, and the highlight is the stunning full-scale representation of the Senate Chamber. In addition, there’s an exact reproduction of Senator Kennedy’s office, complete with photos of his family, model ships, and letters from his mother. It's definitely worth planning to visit both Kennedy attractions.
