The 34 pieces that are part of the rich heritage left by Count Guglielmo Coronini Cronberg include cold weapons, firearms and polearms. Alongside pieces that are true family heirlooms, due to the fact that they belonged to the Coronini themselves or to relatives who were in the service of the Habsburg empire, there are in fact numerous items of exotic origin: Japanese and Islamic weapons, but also an Indian shield and a curious African dagger, decorated with shells.
Firearms include a 17th-century pistol by the well-known gunsmith from Brescia, Lazarino Cominazzo, a curious windgun and, most notably, the rare prototype of a thirteen-barrel shotgun, designed and patented in 1882 by Arturo Coronini Cronberg.
