From the shipyards to the linen mills, Belfast has a rich history of craft and innovation. The iconic Samson & Goliath cranes dominate the city’s skyline as a symbol of shipbuilding strength and industrial triumph. The shipyard where they stand, Harland and Wolff, is most famous for its 401st ship, the RMS Titanic as well as her first-class passenger tender, SS Nomadic.
Originally designed by Thomas Andrews, exactly one quarter the size of her infamous sister, the SS Nomadic is now the last remaining White Star Line vessel in the world.
