The Titanic is across the street from Beyond The Lens

The Titanic Museum is a two-story museum shaped like the RMS Titanic. It is located in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee and opened on April 8, 2010. It is built half-scale to the original ship. Similar to the one in Branson, Missouri, the museum holds 400 pre-discovery artifacts in twenty galleries. It is the largest permanent Titanic museum in the world.

The structure is built in a pool to create the illusion of the Titanic at sea, and the 2-hour, self-guided tour is designed to give guests the sensation of being an original passenger on The Titanic's 1912 maiden voyage. The structure cost $25 million to build.

As the two RV Gypsies entered the museum, they learned that they could enter free because they are both Military Veterans. They were each given a passenger boarding ticket with the name of an actual Titanic passenger and the class they were traveling. They learned the individual stories of several passengers. But in the Titanic Memorial Room, Lee Duquette discovered that his passenger, Edward Austin Kent did not survive, although he was seen helping women and children into the lifeboats.
