Tour the Santa Maria Novella pharmacy (historic herbal pharmacy)
Najbolje vreme za posetu
Weekday mornings right when it opens at 9:00 AM to avoid cruise ship crowds that flood in after 11:00 AM. December weekdays are especially quiet before Christmas gift shoppers arrive.
Saveti za budžet
Entry to the shop and museum is completely free. Watch the budget by skipping the gift shop impulse buys; a small bottle of rose water costs around 30 EUR, but you can smell everything for free.

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Oficina Profumo-Farmaceutika di Santa Marija Novela postoji više od 400 godina, što je čini jednom od najstarijih apoteka na svetu. Dominikanski monasi počeli su da uzgajaju lekovito bilje ovde u 13. veku, a radnja i dalje prodaje originalne recepte za ružinu vodicu i potpuri iz 16. veka.
Istaknuto: Iza skromne kamene fasade krije se renesansna apoteka s freskama koja miriše na lavandu, žalfiju i recepte za ružinu vodicu stare 400 godina. Posetioci ispijaju biljni čaj pod zasvođenim plafonima oslikanim biblijskim scenama dok razgledaju keramiku u kojoj se čuvaju iste mešavine bilja koje su voleli medičejski plemići.
Insajderski saveti
- Head to the back room where you can sample their famous herbal liqueur, Liquore Antico, for a small fee that includes a tasting glass.
- Photography is permitted, but skip the selfie stick and use natural light from the courtyard windows for warmer shots.
- The potpourri counter lets you mix your own custom blend from 30 different dried herbs and flowers by weight.
- Visit the small museum upstairs first to see original distillation equipment and medieval recipe books before browsing the shop floor.
