Super museum which was not originally planned. The upper floor in particular surprised us with its size. The hammocks were very good after a hard day

Museo disposto su due piani (piano terra e primo piano). Ci sono molti oggetti interessanti: armature, armi, strumentazione di guerra, veicoli (tra cui un carro armato posto all'esterno del museo). C'è anche uno shop dove acquistare oggettistica varia e dove bisogna fare il biglietto d'entrata. Il prezzo non è esagerato, vale la visita.

Nice collection of weaponry from times past. The muskets and some of the armor were really in good condition.
