The City Pharmacy. With its richly decorated bay window, it is one of the most impressive buildings in the city center. From 1847 onwards, the building was used as a pharmacy.
The traditional City Pharmacy is still located on the ground floor today.
The Gera Art Association organizes changing exhibitions on the upper floor.
