When in Toronto, do not miss the Royal Ontario Museum
Below are snapshots of the display of the four Viking Age swords in the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto (Ontario, Canada) as well as a portion of their collection of European medieval swords, including the four examples (yellow arrows) once in the Alexandria arsenal.
The European arms and armour gallery is not large, but it does include a number of very nice things and the museum has extensive world cultures displays including numerous examples of ethnographic arms and armour in addition to natural history exhibits. Avoid regrets - plan on spending a full day there... |
