In 1951, a room of the Chemistry and Pharmacy of the University of Chile department was useful to exhibit objects recovered by Professor César Leyton, that in 1987, were transferred to the Professional Association of Pharmaceutical Chemists, located opposite the Forest Park
Currently and with more than 60 years of history, the museum is focused on spreading the riches of its collection and that visitors get in contact with the history of chemistry and pharmacy in Chile and the world.
