More room for guided tours? Come in, a self-guided exhibition awaits you! Concocted by the library team, this exhibition evokes the creation and past of the former faculty of medicine and pharmacy, through its architecture, period furniture, testimonies and varied anecdotes.
Between 14h and 17h45, enjoy the presence of thearchimuse association to extend your visit with a presentation-discovery of old works from the collections of the documentary heritage of the University of Bordeaux.
We have chosen to show you how in the 18th century, French scientific expeditions changed our vision of the world and prepared today’s innovations such as GPS, useful on a daily basis for our routes, mobilities and communication networks.
Set off for Ecuador and, with the explorer and astronomer Charles Marie de La Condamine, walk along the Quito meridian, then with Humboldt and Bonpland, climb the Chimborazo, the highest volcano in the world.
Finally, give yourself a little break. For you it will be: tea, coffee or chocolate? Three curious little medical treatises from the very end of the 17th century will be an opportunity to evoke and reconsider our uses of these drinks once unknown and now «globalized» that have long passed through the port of Bordeaux.
To close your visit, available for young and old, folding and coloring inspired by our heritage collections and some gourmet recipes to collect.

À propos du lieu

When Jean-Louis Pascal won the competition for the construction of the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy of Bordeaux, it is already a recognized architect who has just been appointed architect of the national library in Paris. In Bordeaux, he created a monument with a typical «Beaux-arts» plan, but a rational building, which takes into account the new discoveries of medicine and integrates modern materials of the nineteenth century. The building now houses training courses in human sciences. The university library (BU SH) offers nearly 300 reading places.
