Very detailed and well organized. Pricey, but worth it for a one time stop. Many actual artifacts, the owner was the second explorer to reach the actual wreckage, and reproductions are well done. Staff are very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Don't even think of pulling out your phone I had secret service type security on me for trying to send a 2 sec text.
Even though I had seen pictures of the museum, I was still amazed when I drove up on it. It is indeed located in the back of a 1950s-1960s era jewelry/card store that seemingly hasn't changed since then. I will say that the proprietress was extremely nice and very informative and cares for what is essentially her brother's collection of Titanic and classic ocean liner memorabilia like a mother hen. The collection contains a wide variety of items packed into two (2) back rooms of the store and the owner was regularly interrupted to help with watch repair customers in the front of the store. The items include a diary from a passenger, some of the search equipment from the Argo as well as from a number of the Titanic based movies (her brother and sister-in-law were extras in the James Cameron movie) as from other Titanic era vessels.I enjoyed the museum and the docent is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the topic and there are some really neat things here. However, my 13 year-old (an experienced traveller) was less than enthralled and (albeit very discretely) made it known that after about 20 minutes, he was done. I had even prepped him with the base story of the Titanic and why it had captured the imagination, but he is of the post-Winslet/DiCaprio era and the interest just wasn't there.If you are interested in the Titanic, are in the Springfield area and have an hour to spare, this is worth a trip. It is cute, quirky little museum, but I worry about its future.Two tips. There is only street parking and while photos are not allowed in the rear of the museum, there is a large scale model of the Titanic in the front of the store which you can photograph.
This place is well hidden in the back of a jewelry store. It smells like an old attic, but worth the stay. The artifacts are very cool if you are into Titanic (I AM). Many articles connected to the great ship, her passengers, and other ships related to her. I recommend talking to the staff, they are VERY knowledgeable and help you to enjoy the displays better. was disappointed that their best pieces are out on loan to other Titanic museums, which I will now have to visit.... but it was worth the $4 to get in.
The Titanic Museum Is located in a section of Springfield. Mass called Indian Orchard.It is quite small, but full of so many things Titanic. It is worth the visit to see all of the memories of that fateful voyage, The price of admission is small, actually a donation. The Kamuda family runs it and are so very knowledgeable. They even had a small roll in the movie. If you want a great experence it is a must see.
It is a nice historical place nearby to take the family. They also had scrolls from the red sea that were on display for a week, on a rare tour for people to enjoy.
I have been here a few times, and just love the fact that the curraters know what they are talking about...many artifacts from the ship and the movie...neat place to go
Went with family as a treat for my 12 y.o. niece who is a Titanic buff. We really enjoyed it, but you have to know what you are going to or you will be disappointed. This is literally two back rooms behind a room of jewelry cases and worn, yellowed greeting cards.The story of the guy who started this museum and his sister, who runs it on a daily basis, is just as fun as the museum. A guy who starts out as a kid obsessed with the Titanic maintains his lifelong interest, corresponds with over 40 survivors of the Titanic, gets donations of artifacts from many of them, and becomes such an expert that James Cameron consults him for the movie and gives him a role as an extra! His sister gets caught up in the whole thing and spends her time greeting visitors and showing them around and making Titanic-themed jewelry. Now, don't you just love that? One room of the museum houses Titanic artifacts and has exhibits organized by survivors stories. There are also artifacts from the sister ships--less interesting to a Titanic buff than the Titanic, itself.The other room has memorabilia from the many movies about the Titanic, including some things from the James Cameron movie set and lots of autographed photos of actors and actresses in the movies.An hour and a half will probably do it for most people, but it is an interesting time and we combined it with a trip to Hartford and some of the museums there.
If you are looking for a huge interactive museum to baby sit the kids for a few hours while you play games on your smart phone, this is not for you. If you want to see a cool little museum that will take you about 1 hr. to see, then you might like this. The store that you go through is worth the $4.00 admission fee. The people that work there are very informative, if you ask them questions. There are not many artifacts from the Titanic, because it was a sinking ship that people were not getting souvenirs from as it was sinking. The Canadian newspaper that had the headline that everyone survived was my favorite exhibit. I don’t recommend this place for kids unless they are real interested in the Titanic, or the movie.
I was surprised to find one of the world's largest collections of Titanic memorabilia in the back of a jewelry store... And in the Indian Orchard neighborhood of Springfield, quite far from the city's urban, cultural district. Indian Orchard, I know, does have a flourishing arts scene; however, this is its only "museum."When I started to look at the collection, I was mesmerized by some of the memorabilia and first-hand accounts of Titanic survivors. Truly, this exhibit has the potential to be an excellent, comprehensive museum dedicated to the Titanic.That said, much of the collection is not even exhibited due to space constraints. (One can tell that the curator tried to stuff as much as she could on the walls and on display tables.)In my opinion, the Titanic Museum would be much better served moving into a larger space, where it can breathe a bit, and where its historical and cultural importance can be better appreciated - certainly it possesses artifacts worthy of a larger site.
I was under-whelmed by the exhibit: buttons off a survivor's coat isn't really a 'big WOW' for me. Hearing Rush Limbaugh ranting and raving on the sound system made it hard to concentrate on anything and gave the place a really weird, cold feeling.
This is a neat little place that is good for an hour or two. Granted it is low budget, and is in the back of an antique jewelry store, but the displays are interesting and clever. The story around the owner is cool and the people are nice. The jewelry store itself is like stepping into 1960.It is reminscent of western hole in the wall museums that neatly surprise you.
We had our day planned to see a few museums in Springfield. We started off at the Titanic, and I thought my son would be the first onetrying to rush to the next stop, but I was wrong. It is a small museum, but there's alot of interesting artifacts, and the lady who runs it is very informative. It was definitely worth the stop - just ask my son!
It is "The" Titanic Museum in the world. It consists of two rooms in the back of a jewelry store in the crappy little Springfield suburb known as Indian Orchard. OK if you are a real Titanic buff,but not worth going out of your way to get to.
