Apothecary - Williamsburg

Old fashioned apothecary with authentic appearing medical equipment, medicine jars and cabinets. The docent was very knowledgeable about 1770-1800 health care provided by the locals as home remedies and what the doctor could provide. Fascinating.

So cool. Father-in-law was a pharmacist back in the 50s and 60s. Wife really got a kick as well as me seeing this.

One of the highlights of our visit to Willisburg! We enjoyed it so much that we returned for a second time. The guides shared fascinating stories and information, and there were plenty of interesting items to explore. Both guides we had were very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. My 8-year-old son and 12-year-old daughter both wanted to come back. I highly recommend it!

This was one of my favorite spots to visit in Williamsburg.

The best way to know if a historical building is open to the public is to look for a flag displayed out front. If you see a flag, it means the building is accessible for visitors.
