A small museum, one of several in the city that present Ioannina under the rule of the Ottomans of Ali Pasha. These weapons were used to Greek revolution of 1821.

AN INTERESTING COLLECTION, ITS ALWAYS GOOD TO SEE DISPLAYS EVEN FROM SMALL MUSEUMS. ONE NEVER KNOWS WHERE A UNIQUE EXAMPLE OR ONE OF A KIND ITEM MAY BE FOUND. THE RIFLE WITH THE MONSTER HEAD AND BULBOUS END OF THE BARREL MUST HAVE HAD A UNIQUE ARRANGEMENT FOR SIGHTING. IT LOOKS LIKE A MASSIVE GUN.
