Mr. ph. Carolus Csillagh moved the pharmacy to his house, baroque corner building placed on the corner of today’s  square Sv. Trojstvo and Županijska street. About the value of the architectural baroque building in which the pharmacy was located tells the inscription in the courtyard, where it is stated that the building was built in 1779.
