Discover the amazing stories behind the building and sinking of the TITANIC… The Ship of Dreams

On April 15, 1912, the world was shocked by the news that TITANIC had been lost, after colliding with an iceberg 350 miles off Newfoundland. Decades have passed, but the fascination about the event, and those who died or survived, continues undiminished.
The TITANIC disaster was the greatest peacetime tragedy of the 20th century. It involved a tremendous loss of life, the sinking of the largest moving structure ever built by man, and the shattering of the popular belief that the TITANIC was unsinkable. This fateful event, where over 1,500 people perished, simply cannot be forgotten.
