Interessantes und Kurioses in alten Arzneibüchern
Fr., 18.09.2026 from 18:30 o'clock
What old medical books tell us about medicine, remedies, and daily life in past centuries.
Old pharmaceutical books are fascinating witnesses of time. They provide insight into the medical concepts of the past and report on remedies that sometimes seem astonishing, sometimes quirky, and occasionally even dangerous to us today. Dr. Gerhard Trousil takes you on an exciting journey through the history of pharmaceutical books, from historical home remedy books to early printed works from the 18th century. You will learn, among other things, how medical knowledge spread and which recommendations persisted over centuries. The books from which the lecture is cited are also on display in a showcase.
Look forward to interesting stories, quirky remedies, and surprising insights into the medicine of times gone by.
