    (Translated by Google) Very interesting museum, we discover medicine through its techniques and instruments throughout the ages. Sensitive soul to abstain, it is necessary to support certain wax casts;) (Original) Musée très intéressant, on y découvre la médecine à travers ses techniques et ses instruments tout au long des époques. Âme sensible s'abstenir, il faut supporter certains moulages en cire ;)

    They have a good collection of Egyption mummies. They are put back on display before this summer on the 2nd level. Don't forget to take the description script from reception before going in.

    (Translated by Google) Super interesting. Due to lack of time, we could not visit everything. But this will be the opportunity to be able to return. (Original) Super intéressant. Par manque de temps, nous n'avons pas pû tout visiter. Mais ce sera l'occasion de pouvoir y retourner.

    C'était une découverte incroyable, un apprentissage enrichissant, le guide explique très bien, il connaît très bien son travail, il est très animé. Ce qui est chouette aussi c'est qu' il te fait participer. Pour les personnes qui étudient la médecine c'est ici qu'il faut s'adresser car les expositions sont vraiment bien détaillées, surtout en anatomie :).

    (Translated by Google) Interesting museum. However, to my surprise, the staff did not wear a mouth mask, therefore 3 stars. Everything is completely in French, which is a shame (Original) Interessant museum. Tot mijn verbazing droeg het personeel echter geen mondmasker, daarom 3 sterren. Alles is volledig in het Frans, beetje jammer

    A medical museum is always a bit of a strange place but nevertheless they have a very extended collection of interesting artefacts from all over the world. I'm not the biggest fan of medical history but its undeniable a good collection.

  • 5/5 Giulio S. 10 months ago on Google • 54 reviews
    Really nice museum, from medieval and renaissance instrument to electronic ones and PC controllers. I really loved all the example of music played with each instrument! Very useful for people who have no idea!

  • 3/5 Peter G. 1 year ago on Google • 19 reviews
    Needs more explanations of things. Good surgical collection and pre-Colombian . Needs more timeliness for types of medicine, drugs and practices.

  • 4/5 e d. 1 year ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Really interesting. Not all collections are for everyone (waxes can be tricky) but all ages can learn something (Original) Franchement intéressant. Toutes les collections ne sont pas pour tout public (les cires peuvent être difficiles) mais tous les âges peuvent y apprendre quelque chose

    (Translated by Google) Exceptional rooms for rent, decorated with Art and Archeology objects. (Original) Salles à louer exceptionnelles, décorées avec des objets d'Art et d'Archéologie.

  • 5/5 Mario M. 7 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    Small but nice. I only paid 1€ as a student (otherwise its 5€) and it was totally worth it. The museum shows exhibits from ancient Egypt and the pre-Columbian era as well as chirurgical equipment from the 18th and 19th century. The museum is in the outer parts of the city so it doesn’t have many visitors, but I enjoyed the calm and old-timey atmosphere. However if you’re sensitive to the sight of wounds, I would recommend to skip the rooms with wax casts.
