Description

There are always reasons to visit the Pigeon Forge Titanic Museum Attraction in Tennessee! In 1985, RMS Titanic was found, and in 1987 a second expedition took place. The team spent 44 days at sea and did 32 dives to the Titanic. The objective of the dive was to broadcast the first live television show from the wreck site. The entire expedition was led by the owner, John Joslyn. Today, the Titanic Museum Attraction pays tribute to the 2,208 passengers.

"Very informative and interesting history"
April 2023
My husband, son and I had a great time at the Titanic Museum. The history and the artifacts are amazing. They give you these audio recorders so you can listen to what each station is about. It is very kid friendly as well. The audio recorders for them to listen to also is catered to and very kid friendly for them to listen to. My son loved it. It was an amazing experience. I loved how they paid tribute to all the children that were on board that either survived or did not. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable as well. I also loved the tribute and there was a violinist there that was playing the violin.

My girlfriend and I had a great time at the Titanic Museum! I grew to be a history nerd and got into the Titanic, and my GF was not. I got her to watch the movie a few months back, and she has been hooked! Make sure to soak it all up and read about the various characters and their stories!

"Not to be missed"
September 2022
The Titanic exhibit is so well done it is a must see experience. So many surviving relics in one place. This Museum was thoughtfully and lovingly presented to honor all involved! The most stunning piece I took away was the interactive deck where you could actually touch the water and feel the icy temperature! Well done .

How big is the Titanic Museum Attraction?

Titanic Pigeon Forge is a 30,000 square-foot, ship-shaped structure situated on 5.69 acres that overlook the Gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The forward half of the ship is re-created and will be half-the-size of the original Titanic.


What is inside the Titanic Museum?

The Pigeon Forge Titanic Museum holds 20 galleries with hundred of artifacts on two decks. The primary objective in creating Titanic Pigeon Forge was to build a permanent monument to the 2,208 men, women and children who sailed on her.


I hear the museum attraction has re-created Titanic’s Grand Staircase and that visitors can actually climb the stairs. Is that true?

Yes. The section of the First Class staircase between A-Deck and B-Deck has been re-created using original plans from Harland and Wolff, the Titanic builders. It is centered under a wrought iron and glass dome that duplicates what was installed on Titanic. Additionally, there is an accurate re-creation of both a First Class suite and Third Class cabin.


Are there interactive opportunities for my kids to enjoy?

Yes, Titanic Museum tickets includes access to interactive areas of Titanic Pigeon Forge that provide many hands-on experiences designed to give children and adults alike a sense of what it might have been like to actually be on board the Titanic. Families will be able to learn how to send a wireless SOS signal and see how difficult communication was in 1912; they’ll feel what it was like to stand in the icy night air while touching a soaring wall of ice that simulates the iceberg that sliced through the ship. Guests will be able to experience water chilled to 28 degrees which delivers a stark reminder of what two-thirds of the Titanic’s passengers and crew had to endure.


How long is the Titanic tour in Pigeon Forge?
The Titanic Museum tour is a self-guided tour. Because there is so much to see and do, the average length of time a guest will spend in the Titanic Museum is approximately two hours.

I’ve seen one of those Titanic traveling exhibits and wondered why I should care about seeing this one?
Titanic Pigeon Forge and Titanic Branson are unlike anything you’ve seen before. They’re permanent, Titanic-size museum attractions that are unequaled in the world. From the moment you board the Titanic replica ship, you’ll begin to see, experience, and feel the difference. Costumed crew members will introduce you to some of the 2,208 passengers and crew that were on board the ship and you’ll have an opportunity to pay your respect to all of them before you leave.
