Swords in Geneva

[Michel]

Hi Raja Muda,
Nice to learn that you will be visiting our country.
Jens has identified the Museum in Geneva that has old weapons. Barbier Mueller has these days an exhibition of African masks, no weapons to my knowledge. But they have in stock a well made booklet on African edge weapons. Beautiful photos but the text is in Italian.
If you have the time and the interest, you will find in Morges (50km from Geneva and good train connections) one of the Military museum of the Canton de Vaud. There you have in the old castle (XII century) an interesting exhibition of Middle Ages weapons + evolution of the weapons trough the centuries up to the last world war. It has also a complete section on artillery.
If you come to Morges, just call me and we could visit the castle together or you could come to my house and see my keris collection. My telephone N° is 021 801 68 95. I am living 10 km away from Morges only.
If the weather permit and I have no news from you, I may be hiking on Sunday but just try, I may be in and would love to meet you and discuss keris and Malaysia.
Regards
Michel
