This institution is the fourth museum of medical sciences in the country. It harbors approximately 500 pieces including instruments, photographs, documents, apparatuses dating from the end of the 19th century and the early 20th century plates and diplomas. The material preserved in this museum concerns both provincial medicine and scientific developments registered in the country at large, and includes objects and material related to the art of healing - not necessarily medical - ranging from the field of pharmacology to odontology. It comprises four large halls in which reference is made to some of the highlights of medical science in Santa Fe.

The city of Santa Fe lies 475 km. away from the Capital City from which one must first travel down national route No.9 a then switch to national route No.11. Santa Fe is connected with the city of Paraná capital of Entre Ríos, by means of the Hernandarias Underwater Tunnel. A site worth visiting is Cayastá, located 80km. away from the city, where the primitive city of Santa Fe -now in ruins- was founded. Other interesting sites are the Convent of St. Francis, dating from 1680, which harbors the remains of Estanislao López and the Church of Our Lady of Miracles which is the oldestin the whole province.
