10-18.

Since 1991, the Titanic exhibition has attracted 16 million visitors in 18 countries of the world. In Central Europe, Hungary is the first country to welcome the exhibition.

At the Titanic exhibition, a collection of several thousand artifacts retrieved from the bottom of the ocean can be seen. The exhibition is trying to make the event more hands-on for visitors through the reconstruction of some of the ship’s rooms – first class and steerage cabins, corridors and the boiler room. The expert background noises, music, and the special lighting all help visitors of the exhibition experience the excitement of the Southampton launch, the luxury of the first class, the puritan style of the third class, the hard work of those working next to the boilers in the engine room, and the unbreakable strength the captain’s bridge.
The incomparable atmosphere and uniqueness of the Titanic exhibition are solely down to the excellently preserved and almost hands-on artifacts. Among these, you can find china preserved in fantastic condition, highly decorated crystal bottles and personal belongings of the travelers, including glasses, wallets, and clothes.
The exhibition appeals to all senses of the visitors. They can touch a real iceberg so that they can sense how mercilessly cold the water was on the night of the disaster.
