Hi Carol,

beautiful pictures of items of the short lived Emperor Maximilian of Mexico. Where are they located, in a museum in Vienna? That would mean Juarez allowed these items to return to Austria together with the Emperor's body.

By the way, sorry for this late reaction, but I seldom look at Rest of the World forum. Perhaps GMIC should make a Latin America forum.

Regards,

Pieter

Thanks Pieter. The orders and sceptres are in the Imperial Treasury in Vienna together with other amazing items.

Carol,

thanks for the information. Next time I visit Vienna I will certainly include the Imperial Treasury.
