This depends on which ark you mean; Noah's Ark or the Ark of the Covenant. For Noah's ark, I suggest you look at the answer to "Where did Noah's Ark land?" which describes the various proposed locations. For the Ark of the Covenant, a case has been made that it's in a church in Axum, Ethiopia - taken there by King Solomon's and the Queen of Sheba's son. There is a ancient book (Kebra Nagast) claiming that Solomon made a copy for his son to take to Ethiopia, but that the copy was switched for the original. With a skeptical eye, one might ask why having tricked a king out of his most treasured possession it would be a good idea to have the plot published in book form. In any case, no-one is permitted to even look at the Ark in Axum, so it's unlikely to be examined any time soon! Apart from the Ethiopian claim, cases have also been made for Zimbabwe, Qumran, Jerusalem (the Biblical resting place for the ark), Languedoc (in France), Warwickshire (in England) and Tara (in Ireland).
