   Bavarian Army Museum

   Bayrisches Armeemuseum

   The museum is separated into two locations. The Neues Schloss, a former duke's residence and part of the city wall, hosts a collection of military artefacts from different eras as well as a bunch of replicas. The Reduit Tilly, a part of the former state fortress in Klenzepark hosts a World War I exhibition. The latter is a very interesting and well structured museum, with exhibits and documents from the era and some short films which summarise the history. The Army Museum is being renovated in 2019, so some parts may be closed. Many of the captions are in German and they have something of a pro-Bavarian and politically conservative slant but the original exhibits are interesting even if you don't subscribe to their view of history.
