Why Titanic Belfast matters

Titanic Belfast stands beside the slipways where the Titanic was built, and its angular, metallic design recalls ships' hulls. Inside, galleries tell the story of Belfast's shipbuilding boom, the ship's construction and her loss. It is more than a museum; it explains how the city got to where it is today.

Talking points

  • It stands where the ship was built.
  • The building has a metallic faceted design.
  • Nearby you can see the slipways.
