Support the Museum Project and become friends of the Croatian Museum of Medicine and Pharmacy!

The Croatian Museum of Medicine and Pharmacy is unique in Croatia, because up until now our medical and pharmaceutical heritage has only been presented in fragments or on occasional exhibitions. Since the opening of the Museum to the public is important for the promotion of national identity and values, we expect the support of all relevant social institutions and institutes.

We also invite Croatian companies for financial support, especially those whose production activity is related to the displayed material and theme of the Museum, as well as individuals and associations of biomedical profession and sciences at home and abroad.

We also invite associations, institutions and individuals who have preserved materials from Croatian medical and pharmaceutical heritage to donate objects to the Museum.
