The Apothecary Museum Harry Potter Birthday Tours
The Real-World Science Behind Harry Potter
Tickets are $8, available here.
In honor of Harry’s birthday on July 31st, the Apothecary Museum is offering a special guided tour for families (and adults who missed their Hogwarts’ letter) that will explore the old Apothecary and the historic muggle medicines that inspired the Herbology and Potions of Harry’s wizarding world.
Each timed entry will be a separate guided tour, so be sure to purchase your group’s tickets for only one timed entry. Due to the small spaces in the museum, the capacity for each tour is 10 people. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Everyone must purchase a ticket, adults and children. Touring the museum involves ascending and descending one flight of stairs. Photography welcome. This tour sells out quickly, so purchase in advance!
