The Wallace Collection

After visiting Kensington Palace, Milo wanted to see some knights so we took him to The Wallace Collection. The Wallace Collection is in Marylebone, about 10 minutes from where we used to live and is one of my very favourite galleries in London. I love it for the amazing collection of 18th century French art, but it also has an extensive collection of armour and swords too. It's staggering to think this was once a personal collection. (They also have some replica armour and chain mail which you can try on - it is unbelievably heavy!)
