This is the foyer into which visitors to the Governor's Palace in Colonial Williamsburg must enter. It provided ample proof of the power of the crown as firearms, swords, knives and well-appointed decor greeted all who entered. The gentleman giving the tour was an excellent guide who brought the smallest detail into historic perspective.

I remember this room. What I don't remember is if this display was for show, or did soldiers actually have access to the arms if necessary.
