 The Pharmacy Museum, part of the "Mauthausen Castle Museums" alongside the Museum of Local History, has enriched the Upper Austrian museum landscape since 2007.

 This special museum, unique in Austria in terms of its form and scope, is based on the pharmaceutical history collection of the Aichberger family of pharmacists based in Mauthausen.
In a tour with multilingual audio guide (D, E, I, CZ, children's track) or personal guided tour (registration required) through five thematically clearly organised rooms, the exhibition documents the development of small country pharmacies, touches on the discovery of important medicines and has an extensive collection of historical herbal and pharmacopoeia books.

Group tours:
Bookable: All year round by prior arrangement
Group sizes: 10 to 25 people

Workshops can also be booked in which you can make your own ointments, pills and capsules. Price on request!
