Set in a medieval merchant house on Lai Street in the old town, this museum traces the history of medicine and the human body through anatomical models, instruments and interactive stations. Displays cover the workings of organs, the history of surgery and public health, aimed at curious visitors of all ages. Children explore hands-on exhibits that explain how the body functions. The setting within an old stone dwelling, complete with vaulted rooms, adds a historical layer to the scientific content of the collection.
