Home to the largest single collection of pre-Civil War artifacts in the world, the Arabia Steamboat Museum is one of Kansas City’s most popular attractions. Taking visitors on a journey back in time to life on the American frontier in the mid-nineteenth century, the museum documents the modern-day treasure hunting adventure of salvaging the Arabia Steamboat. Boasting an incredible collection of items and artifacts found in the sunken Steamboat Arabia in the Missouri River, the Museum captivates audiences with exhibits, displays, and presentations on pioneer life in the 1800s. Discover old trinkets found in the depths of the ship, from fine china to the world’s oldest pickles. Take a guided tour of the museum, which includes a short movie where you will learn all about the process of salvaging the sunken steamboat.
