When I was at school I remember learning about Vikings, Saxons, Romans, Normans right through the Tudors and on to the 20th Century as well as lessons on the Pre-history, Egyptians, Aztecs, Greeks, Romans and inventions! None of this seems to be important any more! Glad we can still take our grandchildren to visit Museums and Historical sites ourselves!! Sorry! Rant over! Thanks for showing this part of your visit!

You never know where you can find such interesting things.I think I would like that royalty exhibit. I remember in high school history going through all these different royal families and some of them are hard to keep straight. Do we get any more photos from the museum?My name is Erika.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04834435573574156495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-39076071661539993432016-10-21T16:24:08.708-05:002016-10-21T16:24:08.708-05:00I love the history of Royal families and these ph...I love the history of Royal families and these photos were great to see even though you said you struggled with the glass cases.

I'm so glad you shared this with us and can only hope that it will come around to within striking distance here.

I still love to read biographies of royalities and dynasties - more interesting than reading other historical books... <br />and it's always stunning how they were connected through marriage .<br />Specially our Austrian empress Maria Theresia<br />(from Habsburg)<br />was known for coupling many of her 16 children to other European houses - she wanted to have political partners and wanted to ensure peace .. a very clever female regent who had fantastic good ideas - she was a good mother for her people and we still have laws and regulations in Austria that lead back to her reign - unbelievable .-But TRUE.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing - glad you joined this exhibition!<br /><br />Thank you for your so lovely comment today for me!<br /><br />Happy weekend dear Elizabeth!<br />oxo Susifroebelsternchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06501600240752195171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-83119372851143391482016-10-21T09:33:31.019-05:002016-10-21T09:33:31.019-05:00You are lucky to have such an interesting museum c...You are lucky to have such an interesting museum close by.<br />Even good cameras have limitations when it comes to dealing with dreaded glare.<br />Interesting history lessons to be had.<br />Thanks for sharing E<br />oxo~*~Patty Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03953758102509632020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-76110041408575722092016-10-21T09:08:27.539-05:002016-10-21T09:08:27.539-05:00What a fantastic exhibition, with lots of great pi...What a fantastic exhibition, with lots of great pieces.
