Weapons Museum

Address

Aldobrandesco Castle – Arcidosso Historic Centre

The museum

The collection, donated to the Municipality of Arcidosso by Mr. Emo Mecheroni, a retired marshal of the Carabinieri, includes a precious collection of ancient weapons that "tell" the story of cultures, societies, populations, from the Middle Ages to the early twentieth century. Of particular note, both in terms of quantity and value, are the knives belonging to the period going from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance. Loaded firearms date back to the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, used both as hunting weapons and as ordnance army weapons. The objects are all catalogued and displayed in special noticeboards located in the gallery of the Conference Room of the Aldobrandesco castle in Arcidosso.
