I’ve been hearing all about the Titanic Museum in Pigeon Forge and have driven past it many times. I’ve just never had the chance to visit. That will all change soon. Both of my kids (age 3 and 8) have recently become enthralled with the story of the Titanic. They actually have no idea we have an amazing museum to visit less than 30 minutes away. In a couple of weeks I’m going to surprise them with a visit to the museum. I can’t wait to see the looks on their faces! I’ll be coming back to post pictures and let you all know what we thought about the museum.

She decided to leave for New York immediately and boarded Titanic on April 10, 1912.

  1. Thanks for the review. I am 16 years old and have been homeschooled my whole life. As a school project I wrote a book on a priest that was on the RMS Titanic and it is now being carried at the Titanic Museum! I can’t say enough good about the museum. You will have a wonderful time. They are a class act! Please check out my project at http://www.TitanicHeroes.com my brother and I appreciate all the support we can get.

    1. Looks like you and your brother have a great project! I loved watching the video you have on your site. My mom has many of the books and has seen many of the movies you mention in your video. I’ll definitely have to look for your book when I visit the museum!

  2. What a great learning experience. I am obsessed with all things titanic!! I think this would be an amazing experience!!

  3. When we were in Newfoundland one time we got to visit something like this. What a great teaching tool plus it’s also fun:)

  4. That’s actually a really awesome looking museum, I like how it’s actually a ship and all; it’s such a creative idea.

  5. What a great learning experience that trip must be.,, Outings/Learning excursions were my favorite in school. For a short while, we get to escape and transport ourselves to another era.

  6. My stepdaughters were in Pigeon Forge this past Summer and it is now on one of my list of places to visit. We visited a Titanic museum that looks just like that one in Branson, MO.

  7. Visiting museums is not always for learning. Its fun, picnic and leisure too. I prefer to visit museums when I visit a new place, you get to know the place, history and more at one place. thanks for sharing about Titanic.

  8. Another great place to visit! Looks like an awesome one. How I wish I lived close to it, I would have visited it with my little sisters and my little niece but thank you for sharing! 🙂
