Nowhere else on earth can bring you this close to Titanic – the world’s most famous liner, built here in Belfast. She sat here in this very dry dock on the eve of her first and last voyage in April of 1912.
She is remembered for the dramatic story of her sinking, but in 1912, she was an icon for all that was great about the 20th century.
