Grand Opening – Titanic @ VOLO MUSEUM

04/14/2023

Unveiling the Titanic: Explore the Real Stories of the People on Board and a Jaw-Dropping Collection of Titanic-Era Cars

Step back in time to the fateful night of April 14, 1912, when the Titanic met its tragic end. Our brand-new exhibit offers a unique opportunity to experience the ship’s final moments and learn about the passengers and crew who were aboard.

Visitors can explore the sloping decks of the ship’s stern as it sank and even feel what the 28-degree ocean waters felt like. You’ll see authentic historical clothing and fashion from first, second, and third-class passengers, and can purchase a fate card to learn about your passenger and their fate.

For car enthusiasts, the exhibit features a stunning collection of Titanic-era automobiles worth $5 million, ranging from 1885 to 1912. From brass roadsters to luxury town cars, these cars will take you back to the golden age of automotive design.

The exhibit also features a 1910 Steinway Grand Piano, which played a pivotal role in the ship’s final moments, and numerous tributes to Titanic artifacts, including the personal effects of Wallace Hartley, the ship’s band leader.

You can watch a short film in the Titanic Theater and learn about the history, survivors, facts, and more. Read the stories of the men, women, children, and entire families that had to die on the doomed ship, and gain a deeper understanding of one of the most tragic events in modern history.
