Landshut Castle / Swiss Museum of Wildlife and Hunting
The Hunting Horn
Permanent exhibition

For many hundreds of years, the hunting horn has been used as a device for communication and signalling. Later on, it evolved into the musical instrument we know today.

The horns in this small however fine exhibition are providing a historical view. Sound samples are completing the presentation.
