Description

One of France's finest apothecaries in Baugé, Anjou.
Listed as a historic monument and recently awarded a Michelin star, Baugé's apothecary is considered to be one of the finest in France, with a collection of over 650 jars and boxes with contents as mysterious as they are strange: dragon's blood, crayfish eyes, woodlouse powder, etc. will thrill the youngest visitors. In the large patients' room, discover the art of healing and the daily life of a hospital in the 17th century through objects from the period. Then admire the Baroque chapel and its double choir, before visiting the living quarters of the Hospitallers of Saint Joseph. Add a touch of colour and fragrance to your visit by strolling through the simple garden in the square courtyard. This site is NOT accessible to people with reduced mobility.
