The building opened on March 31, 2012 and attracted over 800,000 visitors in the first year. The attraction belongs to a non-profit foundation. The architects said that "we have created an architectural icon that captures the spirit of the shipyards, ships, water crystals, ice and the White Star Line logo. Its architectural shape intersects a skyline silhouette that was inspired by the very ships that were built on this sacred ground.

On April 10, 1912, the Titanic left the port of Southampton, England, to acclaim. The maiden voyage to New York was to pass via Cherbourg in France and Queenstown in Ireland. But just four days after the start of the voyage, at around 11:40 p.m. on April 14, the ship collided with the destructive iceberg - and finally sank completely in the freezing cold Atlantic at 2:20 a.m. on April 15. The wreck of the Titanic lies around 600 kilometers southeast of the coast of Newfoundland at a depth of almost 4,000 meters. It was not discovered until 1985.

The Titanic Belfast Museum is a visitor attraction opened in 2012 dedicated to the memory of the passenger liner RMS Titanic that sank in 1912. The museum is located on the premises of the ship's builder, Harland & Wolff, in the city's Titanic Quarter. It tells the story of Titanic, which sank after hitting an iceberg on her maiden voyage, and her sister ships RMS Olympic and HMHS Britannic. The building covers an area of 12,000 square meters, with conference rooms as well as exhibition halls. The official opening of the tourist attraction was made by Queen Elizabeth II.
