The new Pigeon Forge Titanic Museum Attraction hosted its Grand Opening today, April 8, and will hold its official opening to the public on April 10. The museum is the newest addition to the Pigeon Forge attractions scene.

The design of the museum makes visitors, or “passengers” as they’re called by Titanic crew members, feel like they are on a real ship. The structure of the museum is one of a real ship, complete with double smoke-stacks and ship bow. The museum houses elements like a story-tall iceberg shaped wall made of real, touchable ice as well as a replica of the grand staircase and first and third class cabins.

Titanic visitors get a boarding pass with name of a real passenger or crew member who was on the ship that fateful night. At the end of the tour, guests will compare their name to a memorial wall to see if their person lived or perished.

To add to the realistic feel, all of the employees at the Titanic Museum are dress as ship officers, first-class maids or stewards they remain in character at all times. The crew are also storytellers and help create the ambiance of the museum experience.

The museum houses more than 400 artifacts and it also has full-size room re-creations, like the first-class cabin, that were modeled after Titanic blueprints. A few of the artifacts include a life jacket traced Madeline Astor, the young pregnant wife of John Jacob Astor, a key to first-class cabin suites that belonged to steward Edmund Stone & White Star ocean line china.

This is the second boat shaped Titanic Museum. The first is located in Branson, Missouri.
