In a Baroque house in the middle of Nerudova Street, one can find a rich exhibition showing what a pharmacy in the renaissance period to the 19th century was like.

The unique furniture and equipment of the pharmacy consists of a work desk (recipe desk)

The inventory contains a number of vessels made from clear and hyalite glass, Slavkov porcelain and from turned wood.
