Located in a historic building, the museum showcases a collection of vintage pharmaceutical equipment, bottles, and remedies. Many visitors appreciate the well-preserved artifacts and the opportunity to learn about early medical practices.

The museum's authenticity and educational value are frequently highlighted as positives, though some find the admission price a bit high for the size of the collection.
