The Armourer's Bedroom is a tiny windowless room inside the Duchess's apartments where her personal armourer may rest or spend the night. The tiny proportions of this room make it even impossible for you to stand, unless you are quite small. But you're in a bedroom to lie and rest anyway, aren't you? You'll notice the simple hexagonal terracotta tile floor, characteristic of the service areas of the palace.
The fireplace seems to be original, probably made for the room in the beginning of the 18th century.
Show us where all the guns are stored dude!
ReplyDeleteIs it near this room????
The Duchess's private armoury is indeed near the armourer's lodging quarters. Maybe a next post will be about the armoury itself, but it is kind of a sensitive room and whatever we show you about it, if anything, depends on the Duchess's own decision. Keep strong and keep safe!
