Historic Ambiance

Otterberg, Germany

The Old Pharmacy)
This Walloon half-timbered house was erected in 1608 and purchased by the Pharmacist Leonard Euler
in 1836. It remained a Pharmacy until as recently as 1966. On the first floor there is a raised plasterwork ceiling from the 19th Century.
During renovation of the ground floor the original decorative colouring of the time was revealed. Today the house serves as Bistro.
