The Council Pharmacy is an impressive one Half-timbered house am MarketplaceAfter the city fire of 1540, two large buildings were built around 1550 on several vaulted cellars. The front building on the left has a multi-story facade, but the long side on Münsterstraße is built using a post and beam construction, as is the adjacent building. Both buildings are independent and were only united under a common roof structure in 1590. One of the vaulted cellars has a groin vault, dating from around 1400.
The building belonged to 16. century the rich Patrician family Raven. On the Wangensteinright-wing From the entrance stairs and on the house there are still pictures of the Family coat of arms visible. Part of their family crest is the SwastikaA lucky symbol in the shape of a sun wheel, not to be confused with a swastika. In addition to the Rats-Apotheke (pharmacy), this family owned other real estate in Einbeck, so their coat of arms can be seen on various houses. They also regularly provided council members and several mayors. Therefore, the coat of arms can also be found on epitaphs in the Marktkirche (Market Church).

From 1996 to 2000, the façade of the Rats-Apotheke was thoroughly restored. The paint was applied in “Oxblood Red”, as this must have been the original color of the facade according to an examination of the historic beams. In the stairwell, Renaissance stucco from 1561. Further renovations, such as the installation of an elevator and the creation of parking spaces in the courtyard, took place in 2012.
The Council Pharmacy moved in the year 1833 into the half-timbered house on the market square; previously it was located in another building on the Long Bridge.
