Titanic Exhibition: Birmingham
July 27 - August 25
Experience the story of the Titanic as you’ve never before. Trace its journey from the Harland and Wolff Shipyard in Belfast, through its fateful voyage and sinking, to its rediscovery at the bottom of the Atlantic and the legacy it leaves today.
Using remarkable footage of the wreckage, along with real objects and interesting artefacts recovered from the seabed, the exhibition offers a rare chance to discover about the crew, engineers and passengers that set sail on the ship that was known as the ‘unsinkable’. Also on display are artefacts from the Titanic’s sister ship, the Olympic.
Visitors will be able to see items and read stories about first, second and third class passengers from both ships, as well as discovering items such as silverware and chinaware, a photographic collection from on-board passenger and survivor, Father Browne, plus many more of the Titanic’s interior and exterior artefacts that have been recovered from the wreckage site.
Also on display are some props from the 1997 epic Hollywood blockbuster film including a life jacket, one of the Heart of the Ocean necklaces, Captain Smith’s teacup and saucer, plus moulding from the grand staircase set.
