Markt 4, Weimar, Heritage pharmacy at Market Square, Weimar, Germany
The building at Markt 4 features a prominent bay window and a portal with stone seating niches on its northern side of the market square.
Established in 1506, the Court Pharmacy remained the sole pharmacy in Weimar until 1801, when the Lion Pharmacy opened its doors to the public.
During the Classical period, pharmacist Wilhelm Heinrich Sebastian Bucholz conducted scientific experiments with Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, including balloon tests.
The Court Pharmacy building currently houses the Weimar Tourist Information Center, which will remain there until 2027 during renovations of the city hall.
The structure, rebuilt in 1988 after wartime destruction, stands as a registered cultural monument in Thuringia, preserving its historical pharmaceutical heritage.
