Agricola was born in Neunburg vorm Wald in the Upper Palatinate. In 1607 he matriculated at the University of Königsberg. From 1611 to 1614 he himself reports to have practised mainly in Austria (centred in Gmunden in the Salzkammergut), among other things as assistant to the imperial court physician Matthäus Judex. Longer journeys took him to Upper Hungary, Switzerland, Croatia, Italy and finally from Venice via Greece, Rhodes and Syria to Alexandria in Egypt. Further journeys in France, England and Scotland, which he mentions in his case histories, cannot yet be precisely dated.
In 1615 Agricola was awarded a doctorate in medicine in Basel and subsequently settled in Frankenhausen (1615) and Altenburg in Thuringia (1616), both as town physicians. In 1622 he was appointed superintendent of the Saxon-Altenburg salt works. In 1631, driven from his estates by the onset of the Thirty Years’ War, Agricola initially fled to the University of Jena before acquiring citizenship in Naumburg an der Saale in 1632. Here he practised medicine again until warfare drove him away from there too in 1638. Agricola then found shelter at the University of Leipzig, where his main work, the extensive Chymische Medicin, appeared.
