The Pharmacy History Museum Basel
The "Pharmacy Museum" comprises collections of old medicines and pharmacies, laboratory utensils, ceramics, instruments, books, art and handicrafts. The museum is located in the "Haus zum vorderen Sessel", where Paracelsus and Erasmus once came and went. A sight not only for experts, but also for laypeople.

materia medica
Purely rational considerations and objective healing results have not always been the standard for the quality of a medicine. The collections of remedies of mineral, plant and animal origin that are no longer in use today, as well as amulets, pesticides and necklace medicines, provide an overview of the changes and aberrations in medicine in earlier times.
