Titanic Belfast
A landmark museum built beside the slipways where the Titanic was constructed. Its nine galleries recreate the full story of its building, maiden voyage and sinking.
Titanic Belfast opened in 2012. Its exterior resembles four ship bows, and it is the same height as the Titanic's hull. Its nine interactive galleries begin with Belfast's industrial boom in the early 20th century. They include a small cable car ride through a recreated shipyard, a reconstructed cabin, the sinking, and underwater footage of the wreck. Tickets cost about £26 to 30, which includes a visit to the SS Nomadic next door, a ship that visitors can board. Booking a time slot online in advance is recommended. In front of the museum, you can see the slipways where the Titanic and the Olympic were built.
