Step inside the true stories of the Titanic’s passengers
Created in collaboration with renowned historian Claes-Göran Wetterholm, Titanic. The Human Story isn’t just a display of facts, it’s a journey through the lives of the passengers and crew who walked the decks of the RMS Titanic in 1912.
Visitors are guided through the exhibit by an immersive audio experience that blends sound effects, stirring music and moving testimonies.
The exhibition explores the hopes, dreams, politics and social inequalities of the era. It paints a vivid portrait of a world in transition, allowing guests to connect with the passengers not as distant historical figures, but as real people with ambitions, families and futures.

For a limited time only, Austin audiences are the first in the nation to experience this powerful and human retelling of the famous story.
