Archery equipment in Germany/Berlin?

So, I went to Dresden and the T?rckische Cammer, too. Besides lots of hand weapons, muskets, armour and horse gear, there is around a dozen of Ottoman Turkish bows on display, most of them still strung. Only three of them showed visible damage, one only superficial. Furthermore, lots of bow quivers, arrow quivers and arrows. I definitely recommend a visit.
Also, As Amarutu has written, the exhibition catalogue is very nice and worth having.

Hi Arry, Kviljo,

I am one of these interested persons! I still own the cataloque (a very thick book). If we can find a coincident date (preferable July/August), it would be great to meet you in Dresden!

looking forward
Peter

Peter, I have already been to Dresden. Maybe there are others that would co-operate with a visit there. It would have been very cool to see the exhibition together with some experts. More eyes to catch important details

Peter,
all,

I am in contact with Mr. Schuckelt who is responsible for the collection. He is very helpful and indeed interested in contact with experts who could provide additional/background info on the bows. For this, I am not really competent. But here in the forum, there are quite a few renowned experts.

As stated above, it should be possible to meet in Dresden on a Tuesday and have a closer look at the bows.

If this Tuesday is in July or August, I might not be able to come because of professional reasons. I would still be glad to organize such a meeting with the staff of the T?rckische Cammer, however.

All the best,
Jarek

Hallo Jarek,

erst mal danke f?r deine Bem?hungen. Ich hab Juli und August angegeben, weil das Theater in dem ich arbeite da Sommerpause macht und ich somit Urlaub habe. Da ich sonst einen sehr unregelm?ssigen Dienst habe, kann ich erst einen Monat im vorraus sagen ob ich kommen kann. Vielleicht passt?s ja trotzdem mal.

Bitte halte mich auf dem Laufenden.

Peter

Wow das klingt nach einer guten Idee.
Ladet doch einen Kollegen aus der T?rkei ein.
