The museum is a treasure trove of plants and plant- and animal products from around the world, used as medicine, arrow poisons, recreational drugs, cosmetics and dying.
In the ‘Poison cabinet’ you will find strange and curios objects, which were at sale at the apothecary in bygone times. Once upon a time, mummy was a treasured medicament. The museum displays plants from the Danish folk medicine and explains why they work. The museum also shows how new medicine is developed based on traditional medicine.
The entrance to the museum is from Jagtvej 160.
