I was fortunately able to visit this wonderful collection. Here are a few more pictures. I took many more but the lighting is poor and no flash is allowed so not a lot are of any use. These are the best ones that give you an idea of the place. If you plan to visit I recommend a taxi from the train station as it is not easy to find and if you are not good at walking, for what ever reason, does involve a rather long steep climb up hill.

more. Including the mantle worn by Napoleon when crown emperor of Italy, or part of as I cannot remember the exact information.
As you can see I had the place to myself. |

Looks like an amazing place! Was this a private collection or is it the Florence city armoury?

This was a private collection. I do not know if it was given to the city of Florence or not but you can Google it.
