Franciscan Monastery & Pharmacy

Tucked away in Dubrovnik's Old Town, this serene monastery houses one of Europe's oldest continuously operating pharmacies, where monks have been mixing remedies since the 14th century. The peaceful cloistered garden offers a quiet respite from the bustling streets, while the small museum displays original manuscripts, religious artifacts, and vintage apothecary bottles that whisper stories of medieval healing practices. Visitors can peek into the actual pharmacy counter where visitors can purchase creams and herbal remedies using original recipes.
