Titanic: Inside the lavish and luxurious ship which sank in 1912 – see pictures


The Titanic ship was the ill-fated ocean liner which sank after hitting an iceberg on April 15, 1912. What did it look like inside?

There were around 2,200 passengers on board when it set sail from Southampton, bound for New York.

However, disaster struck when it hit an iceberg just five days after setting off which led to the death of around 1,500 people.

Some items from the Titanic remain at the bottom of the Atlantic among the wreck of the ship.

Before it set off, however, there were a few pictures taken which show the lavish designs inside the ship.

DON’T MISS

Dining room

One rare snap shows the dining salon where the first class passengers were served.

The room brought in lots of light with large leaded glass windows.

Dining tables were spread spaciously around the area and were covered with white table clothes.

They were surrounded by wooden chairs with plush cushioned seats.

Pictures show a range of fitness equipment in a room with high ceilings and an arched window.

Decking

There were many decks on board the Titanic and one image shows the Promenade Deck.

This deck extended along the entire 546 feet of the ship and could only be accessed by First Class passengers.

The portrait shows wooden decking lined with rows of lounge chairs.
