Apothekersmuseum Kisters: behind the pharmacy counter

Apothekersmuseum Kisters in Doorwerth brings together pharmacy interiors and pharmaceutical objects. The private collection includes pill boards, scales and cabinets for raw materials, among other things.

Plan your visit ↗

Looking at a complete interior

A pharmacy fitting shows how different parts together form a workspace. Ask which interior you are looking at and which functions behind the cabinets, drawers and counter are explained.

Small tools count too

Scales and pill boards provide a concrete starting point for preparing and measuring. The museum's explanation helps you understand their use without needing any pharmaceutical knowledge yourself.

More than tools

Pharmaceutical still lifes are mentioned alongside the interiors. These add a visual dimension to a collection that might otherwise seem mainly technical; ask about the current display.

Before you go

Visits are only possible after telephone consultation. Confirm the right contact channel and discuss the accessibility of the partly underground museum space in advance.
