Jfk Grassy Knoll

The grassy knoll is a small, slightly elevated patch of grass located in Dealey Plaza, Dallas, Texas, United States. It is notable for being a focal point in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. The grassy knoll is situated to the right and slightly ahead of the presidential limousine's route as it passed through Dealey Plaza. Witnesses reported hearing gunshots from the direction of the grassy knoll, leading to speculation and conspiracy theories about a second shooter or additional gunmen involved in the assassination. The term "grassy knoll" has become synonymous with the broader conspiracy theories surrounding the JFK assassination. In Hebrew, it can be translated as גבעת הדשא, in Spanish as la colina herbosa, and in French as la butte herbeuse.
