AMVM Congratulates Volunteer Christine Kreuzberger…

The American Museum of Veterinary Medicine (AMVM) features medicine, instruments, equipment, text books and literature from more than a hundred years of veterinary history. Located on the Ridgewood Farm in Berks County near Reading, Pennsylvania, the site consists of a renovated historic farmhouse (circa 1740), with a high-style Federal wing (circa 1811), a rare 19th-century double bank barn and a host of outlying buildings.

The AMVM is a national, non-profit organization open to the general public, veterinarians, and all friends of veterinary medicine from across the United States.

Our mission is to provide a unique opportunity for the public to learn about the rich heritage of veterinary medicine and its role in animal and human welfare.
