Nihonto in Stuttgart

[Justin]

I will be visiting Stuttgart, Germany in a few weeks time. Does anyone know of any collectors or museums that I can visit for nihonto/tosogu?

 

Thanks

Justin,

 

there are certainly some addresses to visit. Maybe you should inquire at the NBTHK European Branch for informations.

Try Mr. Hoppen and give him my regards

Thanks Jean and Uwe. I spoke to Mr Hoppen. He kindly invited me to one of their meetings on June 22nd, however I will not arrive in Germany until June 24th. Perhaps next time. Uwe - he said you might be at the meeting.

That´s a pity. I will be there on the 22nd and as you can see in our two catalogues,

there are always fine and interesting blades to see, hands-on of course. :D

How long do you stay in Germany Justin?

Hi Markus,

 

I return to Australia on Saturday, June 29th. Just a quick business trip this time. I have some time free on Saturday morning prior to catching train from Stuttgart to Frankfurt and was looking for a museum or something to visit.

Hello Justin,

I have not been there yet, but at least they have a Japanese department:

Maybe a good place to spend some time without much travelling around.

Have a nice trip, anyhow :D
