      The sword is Bavarian. Various states in the German confederation had different types of swords. "In Treue Fest" is often found on Bavarian swords dating from the WWI period, and was also the motto on their belt buckles from that period.

      I did a little more research, and it seems to be a model 1855 Bavarian Artillery Officer's sword from about WWI.
