Apothecary's - Weekly visit on Saturday

Cultural, Guided tour, Health, Historic in Bourg-en-Bresse

  • Three remarkably well-preserved rooms, including one of the few laboratories open to the public and still in working order, reveal the pharmacy of yesteryear during a guided tour.

  • A visit takes you straight into the chemistry of centuries gone by: the back store and dispensary display rich collections of earthenware and glassware, most of which still contain plants and curative substances, all in a beautiful setting (wood panelling in the Louis XV and Louis XVI styles).

    On-street parking or on the site of the Brou monastery, a 5-minute walk away.

    Reservations online or at the Tourist Office reception desk required, places limited.
