Template information:

The Titanic's keel was laid on March 31, 1909, about fifteen weeks after its sister ship, the Olympic. Both steamers were built in parallel and were equipped to the highest degree of elegance and luxury of their time. White Star Line wanted to use them for its prestigious transatlantic voyages. Two years later, on May 31, 1911, at the Harland & Wolff shipyard in Northern Ireland, the completed Olympic was handed over to its new owners, and the Titanic was launched on the same day about fifteen minutes after noon. With a length of 269.04 m, a width of 28.19 m and a tonnage of 46,329 GRT, it was larger than any ship built until then, and by 1912 it was recognized as the largest ship in the world. Captain Edward John Smith originally took command of the Olympic ship, but later switched to the Titanic on his first voyage, which began on Wednesday, April 10, 1912, when the ship set sail from Southampton. As if fate did them no good, they had missed the New York ship, which was moored here. The Titanic then made planned stops in Cherbourg (France) and then in Queenstown (Ireland) before setting out on the high seas towards New York (USA). The voyage continued without incident until Sunday, April 14, when at about 11 pm and 40 minutes (ship time) the patrol bell rang the alarm due to the approaching glacier. However, the ship wiped its starboard side and sank two hours and forty minutes after the collision into the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Only 712 passengers survived the disaster, and Captain Smith sank with his ship.
