Aboca Museum

When you tire of magnificent art and churches, take a break in this medicinal plant museum inside 18th-century Palazzo Bourbon del Monte. Exhibits provide a fascinating insight into our relationship with herbs from prehistoric times to the present, with rooms dedicated to mortars, weighing scales, glassware and antique books chronicling ancient remedies. In the Poison Cellar, see how deadly ingredients were skillfully crafted into medicinal remedies.
