Middle Ages Museum

Hey everyone! Just a quick post to share a couple pictures of the Musée national du Moyen Age (Middle Ages museum). Tomorrow morning I'm off to London for a few days! I'll be sure to take lots of pictures and write a real post when I get back.

So Middle Ages museum....it was ok. It was much smaller than I expected it to be and super confusing to get around actually. There were no maps or signs really. My friend and I spent a confused 5 or 10 minutes wandering around checking if we'd seen everything at the end of our visit. Besides their organizational problems the museum was pretty interesting. It's in a super old building that fits in perfectly with the theme instead of a super modern typical museum building. Here's a picture of the outside.

 Super pretty, huh? 

Here's one I took through the fence...still not very pretty...


The other cool thing about it was that they had a lot of new mixed with old, like this video projection on the wall. I thought it was a cool concept.



Here's some other cool pictures from the museum.

 A whole room of stained glass! My favorite!



I love his sword with all the fleurs-de-lis!

Sorry for the short post! I'm off to London! Have a good weekend!
