Inside the ARK

As one enters Noah’s world aboard the massive Ark, three decks are filled with scores of world-class exhibit bays. These stunning exhibits allow one to experience what Noah’s life may have been like.

Deck 1 immerses guests in the size and scope of the biblical ark as visitors walk through a storage area and learn about animal kinds. Deck 2 focuses on the pre-flood world, animal concerns, and an exploration of Noah and how God could have prepared him for his monumental task. Deck 3 covers plausible living quarters for Noah and his family, flood geology, post-flood events, and a unique Museum of the Bible exhibit.

Noah’s Ark had 1,398 kinds of animals and 6,744 animals. The chart below shows how many things could fit inside the Ark. The ARK displays a variety of distinct animals (such as the one shown below) and numerous types of containers closely resembling Noah’s Ark.
