Dresden State Art Collections - Turkish Chamber

The Turkish Chamber is part of the armory of Dresden’s Royal Palace and is, without a doubt, one of the world’s most prestigious collections of ornamental weapons and costumes.

Among REIER’s special, climate-controlled display cases are several individual display cases housing life-sized models of horses as well as wall-standing cases that display armor and weapons. Of particular challenge was a flag display case whose height reaches 5 meters. Because of the size, the glass was delivered in pieces through castle windows on the first floor by a special crane. Fibre optic lighting and double-sided anti-reflective security glass perfectly showcase the objects.
