La Antigua Farmacia Melis Cursach


The former home and workplace of Antònia Melis Cursach, bequeathed to the city on her death, is now a museum, preserved to look just as an 18th-century pharmacy-dwelling might. It's also an occasional exhibition space. Visits are allowed Wednesday mornings, and should be arranged through the tourist office (which occupies the ground floor of the building).
