After some early and important firearms, there is a little hallway dedicated to the 30-year war.

The hallway takes us to a small room, full of archaeological finds of weapons dating from the Dark Ages...

And just when I thought this was it, it turned out there is another large hall full of nice hunting weapons, which seems to be the norm for every German museum.

The quality was just as impressive as the quantity.

The highlight is a mameluke sword that belonged to Jerome Bonaparte, and a hunting sword that was Marie Antoinette's.

This is where the tour and the journey ends. Hope you enjoyed the pictures, even if some of the items in the Baumann collection are dubious.
