The Kennedys, Kennedy family museum in Mitte, Berlin, Germany

The Kennedys is a museum housed in a former school building that focuses on the Kennedy family and their connection to Berlin. The collection contains roughly 300 photographs, personal objects, and documents spanning different periods of their lives.

The collection was first shown publicly in 2004 at the Berlin photo gallery Camera Work; its response led Camera Work to develop a permanent exhibition with a team led by a historian of the Free University's John F. Kennedy Institute. The museum opened in November 2006 at Pariser Platz beside the French Embassy, moved in November 2012 into the former Jewish Girls' School on Auguststraße, and closed in January 2019.

The collection reflects how the Kennedy family shaped American influence in Germany and Berlin's global perspective during the Cold War. Visitors see how these connections remain part of local memory and identity.

The location is in an easily accessible building in the city center and the exhibition is moderate in size. Visitors should plan for about one to two hours to get a good sense of the collection, as it is focused and not overwhelming.
