an authentic place) it was nice to see the collectible pieces! The girl involved in this exhibition mentioned that this is the oldest pharmacy in Belarus! you can buy several handmade goods on the spot: teas with interesting flavors, sachets, soap, everything is stylistically decorated) pleasant impressions, even though the museum area itself is small!
It was January 6, 2025. This museum is the case when everything is decided by the staff. It consists of one room, filled with all sorts of ancient and incomprehensible utensils, so all this can be interesting only with a good guide and interested staff. And this turned out to be an extreme problem. The aunt who greeted us turned out to be extremely unfriendly, and in the end she was just rude. And judging by the reviews, this story happened not only to us. And at first she said that "if you are interested in something, ask me." Apparently, this is a catchphrase. But after the first question about the history and organization of the pharmacy in the past, a dull irritation began, then almost shouting at the child, "Don't touch it with your hands!" (about the souvenir-wrapped soap for sale), then it just came down to "all sorts of people are walking around here" when asked to be at least a little more polite. I didn't want any excursions after that. In short, we were out of luck, apparently. We read good reviews about the museum, but we didn't see anything good. We still don't know what kind of utensils are in this room. Or U, the beast!
An ordinary museum, nothing particularly outstanding, a small exhibit next to an existing pharmacy. But considering that it is located next to a pedestrian street in the city center, it should be visited. There were more impressions from the guide's stories about its history than from the place itself.
The museum is small but interesting, and you can immediately feel that the exhibition was made by enthusiastic people. Interesting tools, devices, and surroundings. It's mandatory to watch, it won't take much time.
It's a good museum. An interesting exhibit. The museum is not big, but I recommend visiting it. We were surprised by some of the exhibits. I didn't even know about the existence of such a thing.
A very interesting place! The most surprising thing was that by coming here you can learn not only the history of pharmacy, but also try folk remedies, in particular herbal teas...
An interesting place, very similar to the pharmacy in Brest, only bigger. There is a small museum that is free of charge and sells all sorts of things. We bought tea.
The exposition is full and interesting. I happened to come on a guided tour. It was wonderful to hear about the oldest pharmacy in Grodno. The staff is helpful and sociable
Nothing unusual. One small room, there's not much to see. Gorodensky tea can also be bought at the Batory store (slightly cheaper). You can take a look for the sake of interest, but if it doesn't work out, then you won't lose anything.
A pleasant place where you can come and watch for free! The museum is located in the premises of an existing pharmacy. The museum itself is small, but you will need to pay for the photos.
While passing through Grodno, I accidentally visited a pharmacy museum.I was pleasantly surprised, as I had never seen anything like it anywhere.It's great that you can buy medicines by getting advice from competent and polite specialists, while plunging into history and admiring the exhibits that are presented in the museum!Thank you for your work and for your idea!
It's not just a pharmacy, it's a museum! There are many different antique devices and tools, bottles and flasks, old books and manuscripts. It's a pity that photos can only be taken for money)
The pharmacy itself is very interesting. But an evil young lady is sitting at the checkout, she snaps at any question that you don't see, it's still written. I'm sorry, but I can't see up close and I forgot my glasses. I understand that there are a lot of tourists with stupid questions, but she saw where she was going to work.
The pharmacy Museum is an original, beautiful place. Admission is free, but you have to pay to take a photo inside... Pennies , but still strange . We were also very pleasantly surprised to feel the difference in service. There is a very nice, pleasant, and helpful girl in the pharmacy itself, and a disgruntled, rude woman in the pharmacy museum. She answered the questions with obvious aggression .
We were 25 in the morning, the woman who works there is not friendly. In Minsk, there is one showcase in an ordinary pharmacy and the pharmacist manages to tell about the exposition, he recommended this place. OK, the tour costs money here. And say good morning too? I was selling vet drugs at a pet store and, being tired, I greeted them. In general, not only the theater begins with a hanger. I didn't want to take the tour. Let possibly personal motives go to a psychologist. Anything can happen.
The museum is free of charge. But! Everything would be fine, that's just the payment for everything else in the pharmacy EXCLUSIVELY in cash.
To pay for the tour, you must have cash with you. And without a guide, it is difficult to understand anything - these are just showcases with some incomprehensible exhibits.
And even a photo shoot costs 1 Belarusian ruble, but it must also be paid in cash.
For this reason, we were unable to buy handmade soap and tea.
Is it really so difficult to install a card payment terminal?
Moreover, in the next room of the city pharmacy, payment by bank cards is accepted.
A small dark room at the pharmacy, where several old recipes and flasks are collected. Not impressed at all. Similar museums in Barnaul and Vladimir are much more interesting.
The museum is in a functioning pharmacy. The rent is free, the photo is inexpensive, the excursion was not taken. Everyone took a quick look, bought local tea bags. I recommend it as a souvenir from Grodno.
A very atmospheric place: various bottles, labels, books, tools. It is located next to the orthodox church, and their history is interconnected, so I advise you to visit the church at the same time. The guide was pleasant and told interesting stories.
There is also an opportunity to use the library in the museum if you are engaged in any scientific or research activity.
The place is interesting, inside a working pharmacy in the very center of the city. But I didn't have enough of a guide, there are a lot of interesting things there, and you just don't understand what they are, what they were used for and how. And it's so interesting!
The real pharmacy, founded back in the eighteenth century, still exists and works. An ancient interior has been preserved in one of the rooms and interesting exhibits have been collected. It smells pleasantly of medicinal herbs. Admission is free
Atmospheric. It is located in the center of tourist routes. The museum is very interesting. The service is excellent. The price of the medicine is slightly higher than in economy class pharmacies.
I will not say that the place is worthy to come here on purpose. But OK, if in passing, like me. There is a regular operating pharmacy in the room and a mini museum in a separate room. Admission is free, but the photo costs 1 BYN, payment is in cash only. The staff is unfriendly. There are few exhibits. There is an excursion at a price of about 20 BYN, a group ticket of 20 BYN
It is located in the city center and there are many valuable cultural attractions nearby, so it is worth visiting in passing, but purposefully does not make much sense.
The oldest pharmacy in the territory of modern Belarus. There is an exposition of pharmacy in the hall, which can be visited for free. Among the exhibits of the herbarium of Eliza Ozheshko.
Of course, the pharmacy functions as an ordinary shopping facility, I recommend a shelf with herbal teas
A functioning pharmacy right in the center of Grodno!
A free museum, but for a photo - 1 rub.
Come in for 15 minutes, see how everything worked at the end of the 19th century. Scales, drugs, furniture!
Quite curious!
it is very interesting and useful for doctors and healthcare workers in general. although it's certainly not the first place to go to Grodno, but it's still a great idea.
When running past the castel and the theater, do not run past. A small exposition, but it will still be able to move you a couple of centuries ago. And you can also buy herbal preparations
I'm sorry, of course, but the security staff needs to be trained in politeness.
I have visited more than 100 cities in the world, I have visited all the famous temples, mosques and synagogues... But there was no such thing as me being chased away. The impressions of visiting Grodno are spoiled.
The most interesting place in the city of Grodno!More artifacts have been collected in a small area. It is very interesting to learn the history of pharmacy, healing in ancient times. When visiting, you will definitely buy herbal tea, you will not regret it. I recommend it for a visit!
It's a nice museum, but I'd like to expand the collection. But considering that this is a private collection and free admission, it's not bad. It's also nice that you can buy souvenirs as a keepsake
There is nothing to do without an excursion and a rich imagination. And an excursion in a small room at the price of an excursion to the central museum - an amphibian strangled me to pay so much.
I really liked the pharmacy. Atmospheric and a large selection of products. But the employee of the museum at the ticket office, where they sell teas, is extremely unpleasant. She spoke to us impolitely. And so everything is great.
