The story continues through the 1848 Revolutions all the way to WWI.

As the regiment was initially involved on the Eastern front, and then moved to Tyrol, apart from the Austrian weapons there are also some Russian and Italian trophies.

Finally, in the castle main exhibition, there are some nice arms and armor from the 16th and 17th centuries.

Another city easy to visit from Munich is Nuremberg. It has a lovely old town with a beautiful castle, which houses a lot of nice things.

As typical, the collection starts with arms and armor from the late middle ages. The items here are not as ornate as some of the other museums, but more munitions grade, which is nice too.

After some more late medieval items, the collections transitions into the 17th century and the Thirty Year War.
