Museum of Medicine History (Varna)

 museum, listed building / architectural heritage, 1860s construction

"The subject concerns the unrecognised European Bulgaria whose the alone museum of History of Medicine is worth of seeing. The 1869 building is of an ancient hospital which reminds of the hundred-year-old history of the modern Bulgaria. The miscellance of the objects, the strictness and the clearness of the show afford to follow through five rooms the development of Medicine as practice, art and science from Antiquity till the Second World War. The interest stemming from the general character of the museum is underlined by the constant references to the evolution of the Bulgarian Medicine. Then the local specific characteristics could totally integrate into the evolution of European Medicine. The role of France in the education of the first Bulgarian practitioners is worth reminding. The visitors get out of the museum through a delightful garden rich in Medicinal plants".
