The permanent exhibition titled 'The Relics of Medical and Pharmacy History of Two Centuries in Bács-Kiskun County' compiled of Pharmacy History Professional Collection of Bács-Kiskun County and the Medical History Collection managed by Dr. Réthy Aladár opened in 1985.
In the pharmacy unit, the visitors may learn about the equipment of making medicine, the different types of medicines and the most beautiful pieces used in the 89 pharmacies that operated in our county before the change of regime.
The equipments, containers, documents represent almost all the pharmacies established long ago. However, we only show the nicest offices and furniture: the hand painted peasant baroque furniture from the Holy Trinity Pharmacy of Kecskemét made in 1746. These are surrounded by the showcases holding medicine made of plants, minerals and animals.
The unit showing medical history reviews the past of healing from the barber surgeons and midwives until the establishment of hospitals. The visitors may also see equipment used by doctors in the past two centuries. The exhibition is held in a peasant-civic house that was already shown in the map published in 1810.
