The first pic is a photo of Westbourne Place, Cobh around the time of the Titanic visit. The second one is more recent, taken last year just after a snow storm. Its amazing, there's a time gap between the two of over a hundred years yet they are in many ways the same. Its as if time stood still!!!
Most of the buildings and streetscapes of Cobh are virtually the same today as when the Titanic called. For those 123 passengers who boarded Titanic from Queenstown their experience of Cobh would be similar to yours if you were to visit Cobh today. This is explored in the guided walking tour given by Dr. Michael Martin on the Titanic Trail. On this tour you are in essence walking in the footsteps of those passengers.
The Commodore Hotel is offering great deals for March including a walk on the Titanic Trail, aswell as entry to the Titanic Experience, and also entry to 'Cobh the Queenstown Story.' Check out our Titanic Packages for more details.
