Pharmacy Museum, Historical pharmacy museum in Lviv, Ukraine.
The Pharmacy Museum is an institution in Lviv that collects and displays old medicines and medical tools from several centuries. The collection includes bottles with recipes, surgical instruments, pharmacy furniture, and materials that show how medications were made and given to patients.
The institution started as a working pharmacy in the middle of the 19th century and later was transformed to preserve its collection for the public. The conversion to a museum protected many items that could have been lost or thrown away.
The displays show how people in this region used healing plants and medicines across generations and passed down their knowledge of health care. These practices shaped how communities view natural remedies and medical treatment even today.
The museum is located in central Lviv and easy to reach on foot. Visitors should allow enough time to look at the items carefully, as the details and craftsmanship of many pieces deserve close attention.
The museum features actual pharmacist handwriting and personal notebooks that show how medical decisions were made a few generations ago. These personal notes give an unexpected look at the daily life and concerns of people who prepared medicines.
