The only part that is really cool is on the second floor and it has some old medical equipment that was used. Air conditioning was nice and it was a good place to escape the heat but not worth planning a visit to it.

While in the French Quarter, we decided to stop into the pharmacy museum. Amazing original and historical New Orleans pharmacy. Did the tour and learned a lot of the history of this pharmacy, procedures, medicine, products, practices and the life of the countries first licensed...More

Fascinating place. Lots of history and a bit morbid. Shows how far medicine has improved. Was touring with a pharmacy student who was amazed.

This building served as an apothecary and residence for the Dufilho family...More

I didn't know what to expect from a pharmacy museum and it was a pleasant surprise. I learned much about the history of medicine and New Orleans. Don't miss the courtyard.
