Officina Profumo Farmaceutica di S.M. Novella

Founded officially in 1612 (although actually dating back to 1221 at the arrival of the Dominican friars in Florence), the Officina is one of the world's oldest pharmacies. Its halls showcase a vast range of preparations and products, including perfumes, essences, soaps, unguents, spirits, balsams, colognes, aromatic vinegars, and liqueurs, all still made in accordance with the ancient formulas. But that's not all: the beautifully frescoed rooms of the Officina are a veritable museum of original furnishings and the ancient tools of the pharmaceutical trade.
