Thanks for posting Francis; looks like you had fun there!
Love that Prussian Kürassier Officer with his Metalhelm Überzug & Kürassier Off. Degen (pic. 1)!
And you don't get to see many Ersatz Kürassier Metalhelms either (pic. 8)...

I can't really get over to Koblenz so I appreciate these photos. I particularly like the one in the third picture. Thanks for posting, Francis.

Karel,
Indeed-indeed !
Impossible to see all the artillery stuff, MG, small arms, cold steel etc... in detail.

I hope to visit Rastatt & Ingolstadt some time...(And yes...I told the 'missus'.... )

From what I saw on this forum; I tried to find more info on Vornholz Kavallerie Museum...(looks a 'must-visit' to me...)-I think you only can visit this one on appointment.
Rgds,
Francis

... another must see private museum is the Linke Colonial Museum http://www.linke-kolonialmuseum-online.de/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Never been myself but it looks great and I've heard good reports from previous visitors!

Cheers
