This building, inaugurated in 1794, has fortunately remained intact in both the furnishings and the decorations thereby giving the visitor a vivid image of a pharmacy as it was in the 18th century. The facade was the only part redesigned in 1928. Still conserved are the original 457 magnificent majolica vases manufactured in Imola , that carry the name of the medicament contained inside. These adorn the wooden carved shelves created by the wood-worker Giuseppe Magistretti, from Imola.<\/p>\n

The painted ceiling is the work of the local artists Angelo Gottarelli and Alessandro Della Nave, who decorated a large number of the noble buildings of the town during the second half of the 18th century. These frescoes depict the virtues of medicine and the regenerating forces of nature. Contained inside the pharmacy are also six terracotta statues, of Faenza manufacture, painted with watercolours.<\/p>\n

The pharmacy is still functioning and is open to the public during the opening hours.<\/p>\n
