The 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. For more information or to see a live
