- ItemZ historie libereckých lékáren do počátku 19. stoletíBock, JiříThe article provides an overview of the history of pharmacies in Liberec during its golden age until the beginning of the 19th century, when pharmacists still obtained training for the profession by mere artisanal education. It notes the position of the pharmacist in the health care system and its administration, property law matters and the operation of pharmacies in the course of changing social conditions. He expands the existing knowledge on the basis of the research of archival sources and scientifi c literature. It moves the beginnings of direct pharmacy care in Reichenberg/Liberec to 1580s, when it was provided by the Zittau (Germany) pharmacy. The oldest pharmacy on the territory of today‘s Liberec was established at the end of the 16th century in the local castle and existed until 1645. The fi rst burgher‘s pharmacy was short-lived and operated only between years 1619–1625. Only from the end of the 1670s can we trace a complete line of pharmacists, they did not come from Bohemia until 1716. Their successors have been documented since 1726 as graduates of the pharmacy exam at the Prague Medical Faculty. But between 1745 and 1786 it was in disarray and only stabilized gradually and permanently with the settlement of pharmacists and their families in the city. In 1803, the oldest pharmacy in Liberec moved to No. 1-III on today‘s Dr. E. Beneš Square. The second pharmacy established in 1792 found a new location nearby in 1810 at No. 4-IV. Only these pharmacies served the town and its surroundings until the third pharmacy opened in 1873 and operated until 1950.
