Abstract
We have reconstructed the continuity of the Railway Station Pharmacy using the archival sources from the Division for the History of Medical Sciences of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts. In this paper, we have presented the chronology of its ownership, its locations in the past, its recent position at Tomislavov trg 13 in Zagreb and its preservation level. In the year in which we celebrate the 130th anniversary of the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry and the anniversary of Stanislav Ilakovac’s birth, we also mark the 70th anniversary of death of the Pharmacy’s two prominent owners (Stanislav Ilakovac and Ivan Vranić). In two years, this pharmacy will celebrate its 90th anniversary - a good opportunity to record its history, and to preserve and record its remaining documents and inventory.
