The Admont Abbey Pharmacy
St Benedict already told his brothers to take special care of the sick and infirm: "Care for the sick must come before and above everything else!"
It should therefore come as no surprise that the Admont Abbey pharmacy can also look back on a long tradition centred on people and their health. Shortly after the foundation of the monastery in 1074, a monastic medicine chest can be traced in old writings, which also became useful to the general population from the 15th century. In the years that followed, secular doctors and pharmacists found employment outside and behind the monastery walls.
As the first woman in the almost thousand-year history of the monastery pharmacy, Mag. Pharm. Andrea Pickl took over her father's lease in 2018. Under her guidance, the pharmacy's mission statement lives on: "We want to combine tradition with innovation. Personalised support and sound advice are always important to us. We offer our customers a wide range of medicines, homeopathy, Schüssler salts and nutritional supplements."
The monastery pharmacy run by Andrea Pickl is located just a few metres from the Health centre removed.
