Nearly 98 years ago, the Titanic sank on her ill-fated voyage, but the ship is preserved by 'The Titanic of Pigeon Forge,' a [giant replica](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/notre-dame-cathedral) located in Tennessee.

The world's largest [museum attraction](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sensory-museum), the 'Titanic of Pigeon Forge' is 100 feet tall and features the famous ship's front bow. A 30-foot tall replica of the infamous iceberg has also been placed near the ship replica.
