Help with Florence Museum
Somewhere in my reading and planning for our two week family trip to Italy I read about a museum in Florence that has an exhibit of armour set up as if doing battle, or something like that. My husband and son would love this but now I cannot find the information. Any help out there would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

The museum is the Stibbert. I think Travel+Leisure magazine recently had an article about great small museums and they featured the Stibbert - it does look wonderful.
It is located in the Villa Stibbert, 26 Via Federico Stibbert, between Via Vittorio Emanuelle II and Via di Montughi in Florence

If you'll also be in Rome, the Crime Museum is also a favorite of boys, including guillotines, iron maidens, and other horrible torture devices.
(It's also conveniently located on Via de Gonfalone, which is in the antique district, so it's fun for everyone!)
