This museum locates on the site of the former Harland & Wolff shipyard beside the Titanic Slipways. This is the place where Titanic was designed, built and launched. Outside on the other side of main museum, you can see Titanic’s tender ship, SS Nomadic: the last remaining White Star Line vessel in the world.
This ship yard was used by the shipbuilders Harland and Wolff for many years. Titanic’s sister ships RMS Olympic and HMHS Britannic were also constructed here. As the ship building industry declined, even though some of the structures (such as Samson and Goliath cranes, Olympic Titanic and Britannic slipways and graving docks) were given heritage status, most of the structures on the site were demolished. This museum has opened in 2012. The floor space of this building is 12,000 square feet, most of which is occupied by display galleries. Maritime Belfast Trust is the owner of the museum.
