In 1912, the RMS Titanic sailed from Southampton. Four in five of the crew on board the vessel were from the Southampton area, with about a third of those who perished in the tragedy being from the city.

Hello Filolog,

I have been there and it is worth the trip if you like Titanic memorabilia like I do.
