First display case

In the first display case, four sabers from the seventeenth century are presented, including one blade. The first from the left is a Polish-Hungarian type combat sabre with a characteristic thimble head connected to a crossguard. Then we can see a carabel, considered to be the most Polish saber, although of Turkish origin, worn to the Polish robe, but also used in battle, with a characteristic eagle head. On the fourth in order there is a Latin inscription: "Pro Gloria et Patria", that is, "For Glory and Homeland” and the gilded date "1606". The elegant scabbard of this saber is made of wood and covered with black leather.
