Museo de la Farmacia Habanera, Pharmacy museum in Plaza Vieja, Cuba.
The Museo de la Farmacia Habanera exhibits pharmaceutical artifacts, medicinal instruments, and historical documents showing the development of Cuban medicine through centuries.
Founded in 1853 as La Reunion Pharmacy by Catala Sarra y Cia, this establishment transformed into a state museum in 2004 after extensive restoration work.
The museum displays traditional Cuban remedies, local medicinal plants, and tools that reflect the evolution of health practices in the Caribbean nation.
Located in Old Havana's Plaza Vieja, the museum opens from Sunday to Monday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, featuring guided tours in multiple languages.
The building maintains original 19th-century furniture, counters, and showcases from its time as one of the primary pharmacies in the Americas.
