World's Largest Titanic Exhibit
Towering over Country 76 and the Branson
Strip, a partial reconstruction of the ill-fated
Titanic sails out of history. The ship houses
the world's largest Titanic exhibit.
For anyone interested in the story of the ship
that struck an iceberg and sank on her
inaugural voyage in 1912. By the time rescue
vessels could reach the scene of the tragedy,
1,520 people had drowned in the icy waters
of the North Atlantic.
The Branson Titanic Museum gives visitors a
chance to explore the story of the ship with
well-designed exhibits and one of the largest
collections of Titanic artifacts in the world.
As guests begin their self-guided tours of the
museum, they are given the names of actual
passengers of the ship. As their tour ends,
they compare the name they have been given
to the official roster of the ship to find out
what their fate would have been had they
actually been aboard.
In addition, visitors are allowed to descend a
replica of the ship's famed Grand Staircase,
wind their way through reconstructed cabins
and ship features and view numerous
exhibits and artifact displays.
Among the unique items on display are rare
photographs of the original vessel, the life
vest worn by Madeleine Astor, an actual deck
chair from the ship and numerous other
artifacts.
The Titanic Museum is located in the heart of
the Branson Strip and is hard to miss.
The museum is open daily and has rapidly
emerged as one of the premier attractions of
Branson. At this time admission prices are
$18.82 plus tax for adults, $9.99 plus tax for
