Аптека Штрауса

Аптека Штрауса, Art Nouveau pharmacy on Nazarbayev Street, Oral, Kazakhstan.

The Strauss Pharmacy occupies the ground floor of a two-story mansion built in 1868 in Oral, Kazakhstan. The building is noted for its Art Nouveau architecture, and the Strauss family lived in the spacious apartment above the pharmacy. Since 1944, the second floor has housed a children's music school.

The first pharmacy in the Ural Cossack Host was opened in 1836 by Swiss pharmacist Franz Miller, who held a 20-year monopoly; he sold it to Karl Desalle in 1847. In 1868 a second pharmacy opened in a newly built two-story mansion, later known as Pharmacy No. 1, with the Strauss family living above it. After 1917 the apartment housed the Ural Regional Committee of State Control, and since 1944 the second floor has been occupied by a children's music school.

The Strauss family lived in the flat above the pharmacy, and after 1917 that space housed the Ural regional state control committee. Since 1944 the second floor has been occupied by a children's music school, so the building has served both medicine and music.

The building sits within walking distance of the city center on Nazarbayev Street. Visitors can stop by during the day to view the exterior architecture, and guided tours may be available upon inquiry.

The Strauss family lived in the spacious apartment directly above the pharmacy. After 1917, that flat housed the Uralsk Regional Committee of State Control, and since 1944 the second floor has been occupied by a children's music school.
