Cheap to visit, small but full of stuff (it's two museums in one) and the adjancent cafe is wonderful (try their pies!).

View to how pharmacy people lived and worked in 1800’s. Especially the old pharmacy is worth the visit. Interesting also to see how they made medicine back then.

The hair pictures by the daughter in the bedroom are fascinating and the special chair for ladies to sit with the bustles on their long dresses is interesting. The pharmacy section interesting too with the types of ingredients used and drying room for herbs and plants. Half price for retirees too at 3 euro so if you are retired, don't buy the museum card as cheaper to buy individually.…
