From apothecary to herbalism

Thanks to Herbroressence, the monastery garden holds a small medicinal garden, reminding us of the Hotel-Dieu garden in the 19th century. In this activity, follow the pharmacist nun and discover, thanks to the museum's pharmaceutical artifacts, some more or less eccentric remedies. The tour is followed by a hands-on activity with Herboressence to learn more about medicinal plants and their uses today. This will include an introduction to herbalism, sharing reciepies and tasting!
