Altstadt Apotheke - (Old Town's Pharmacy) was the main Pharmacy of Hanau, Germany. Located on the Metzgerstraße (Butcher's Street) it was housed in a large Timber framing building (amongst the largest in the old town of hanau) Which was covered completely in slate, and up to 6 floors tall. Unusual for its kind for Hanau, as you would rather find large houses like this in nearby Frankfurt.


it was built around the 16th century and was destroyed along with the whole Butcher's street during the english terror raids on the 19th march 1945.
