Former Mohren Pharmacy in Wrocław, Modern architectural monument in Salt Market Square, Wrocław, Poland
The Former Mohren Pharmacy is a commercial building located on Salt Market Square in Wrocław, designed with clean lines and large windows typical of 1920s modern architecture. Its geometric patterns and streamlined facade reflect the style of contemporary commercial buildings in Central Europe.
Architect Adolf Rading designed the building in 1928, when Wrocław was experiencing a period of intense commercial and architectural growth. This phase of urban modernization transformed the city center and shaped its contemporary character.
The building once served the neighborhood as a pharmacy before becoming newspaper offices, showing how urban structures adapt to changing community needs. Its location on Salt Market Square kept it connected to the city's social and commercial life.
The building is located at Plac Solny 2/3 in the heart of Wrocław and is easily accessible from the main streets of the old town. Its preserved exterior can be viewed from the square, and the location makes it simple to combine with other nearby landmarks.
The building was designed by Adolf Rading, an architect known for functionalist designs, a movement less celebrated in Central Europe than elsewhere. His work in Wrocław demonstrates how international design trends influenced local construction during that era.
