SeaCity Museum tells Southampton's Titanic story through an interactive model of the ship, recorded passenger messages from the night it sank, and original objects brought up from the wreck. Alongside this, exhibitions trace 200,000 years of Southampton's history, from Roman traders to the arrival of the docks. A quick look round takes about an hour, but allow two to four hours to take it all in properly, plus time for the shop and café. It suits families and history enthusiasts alike, and children aged 11 and over can visit unaccompanied. The museum is fully accessible with lifts, and nearby parking is a five-minute walk away. Based in Southampton, it sits close to Southampton Central station, with 32 bookable places to stay within 5 miles.
