Abstract

Among the museum education and public education programs of the Fekete Sas Pharmacy Museum in Székesfehérvár, the dissemination of knowledge about medicinal plants has been emphasized for several years. Several of our exhibitions were based on this, together with the events related to them. („Once upon a time there were medicinal herbs”, „The land of plants”, “Love of herbs”) We placed a Plant-Stroking stand in front of the entrance, which, in addition to its decorativeness, makes you want to visit the permanent exhibition, learn about medicinal herbs, and is also an integral part of our children’s activity programs. One of our most important initiatives is the series of herb collecting tours organized for the seventh year in the framework of the Herbarius programs. During the fall and winter off -seasons, we welcome the public with educational interactive presentations, where our trained herbalist expert gives advice on the use of the collected materials. We also produced puzzles, reviews and other handouts. The books and professional articles that can be browsed in the exhibition help fi nd the way around, and the Perfume Box located here, which aims to present various plant fragrances, also arouses the interest of the audience.
