Order of the Golden Aigle

The Bussel Army Museeum has not just this one, but lots and lots of Napleonic and other orders and decoration from all the German countries. I am not sure if they are still on display since the last time I had visited that place is well over 10 years ago, but I do know that they are opeing some up again in September/October 2006. I will actually be there.

Another good museeum is the Palais Het Loo in Apeldorn, Holland...unbelievable stuff.

Very much suited to bring the whole family along
