Taking a stroll through Titanic museums

A select few museums offer Titanic artifacts. Here are a few notable ones:

To get in, the museum says, visitors have to successfully navigate the iceberg. Visitors can stroll through replicas of the lobby, cabins, and Marconi wireless room (where they also can send an SOS message). The museum features an 18-foot, one-of-a-kind Titanic model.

• Maritime Museum of the Atlantic (Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada): This museum has an enormous collection of wooden Titanic artifacts. It also houses what have come to be called the “Shoes of the Titanic Unknown Child.” This pair of leather shoes was discovered on “Body No. 4,” a 2-year-old unknown male child found in the waters of the sinking site. The museum also has other artifacts in its permanent Titanic exhibition, including railroad tycoon Charles Hays’s gloves.

• The Titanic Museum (Indian Orchard, Massachusetts): This museum belongs to the Titanic Historical Society. Although it’s small, the museum boasts some memorable Titanic artifacts, including original Titanic blueprints (donated by the builders of the ship), John Jacob Astor’s life jacket, and the original Titanic wireless that received the warning transmission saying where the fatal iceberg was located.

• Merseyside Maritime Museum (Liverpool, England): This museum presents the original 20-foot-long builder’s model of the Titanic, a survivor’s life jacket, a bank note, a ventilation grille, tie pins, a watch, spectacles, and a lifeboat nameplate.
