The Iceberg That Suspected of Sinking the Titanic 🥶

This historic photograph, taken by W. Wood (a chief steward on the SS Etonian) in April 1912, shows a distinctively shaped iceberg strongly believed to be the one that struck the RMS Titanic. The red circle highlights the red paint smears from the ship’s hull, which were scratched during the impact.

Then and now: the windows of B Deck

On April 9, 1912, two window cleaners prepared the glass of the Titanic’s first-class cabins ahead of its maiden voyage. A century later, on the seabed, the two windows on B Deck were found intact near the ship’s expansion joint, just outside cabin B-41, once occupied by survivor Hedwig Fröhlicher, and the empty cabin B-43, along with nurse Caroline Enders’ cabin. All cabin occupants in that area—including the Fröhlicher family and Caroline Enders—survived the Titanic disaster after being evacuated by lifeboat.
