The Arabia Steamboat Museum houses artifacts salvaged from the Arabia, a steamboat that sank on the Missouri River in 1856. The 30,000-square-foot museum opened on November 13, 1991 in the Kansas City River Market in Kansas City, Missouri, United States.〔Heaster, Jerry. "Arabia Museum Launched," ''The Kansas City Star''. 13 November 1991.〕 The partners of River Salvage Inc., who excavated the Steamboat Arabia and opened the museum, claim to have the largest single collection of pre-Civil War artifacts in the world.〔1856.com "Arabia Steamboat Museum" Retrieved on 14 June 2014.〕 == Overview ==
Visitors to the Arabia Steamboat Museum receive a 20-minute guided tour explaining the boat's sinking and recovery. This is followed by a 13-minute film called ''Treasures of the Steamboat Arabia'', shown in the museum's theater. Next, patrons view the museum's artifacts on display, as well as an open preservation lab where staff members work on cleaning the many artifacts in storage. Finally, visitors walk a 171-foot-long full-scale reproduction of the Arabia's main deck, where they can see archival footage of the excavation process and more information about the Arabia's history, along with the original boilers, engine, and anchor of the Arabia, and the skeleton of a mule fatality. Also on display are the 6-ton stern section of the boat and a reconstructed paddle wheel. The museum additionally offers a gift shop, snack bar, and meeting space.〔1856.com "Arabia Steamboat Museum" Retrieved on 14 June 2014.〕
