Among the late medieval and Rennaissance arms and armor there are also some blue and gilt swords by a local Frankfurt bladesmith family.

Instead of labels next to the items, the museum has chosen to put a couple of books with descriptions and a brief history of how the collection came together.

The firearms collection interestingly enough belonged to Frida Kahlo's great uncle.
