The Mohrenapotheke in Cochem

Mohren Pharmacy around 1905

Johann Franz Gerhardi, who also originally came from Cologne, had married the daughter of the Cochem-based merchant and hat maker Matthias Linius (* around 1599), Anna Maria Linius (1658–1729), a sister of Martin Linius ( Martin von Cochem ). Gerhardi acquired the "apotheca" founded by Matthias Linius in what is now Liniusstraße in Cochem around 1669 and called it Mohren-Apotheke . Gerhardi was one of the most respected citizens of Cochem. After the destruction of Cochem and the Imperial Castle of Cochem by French troops on August 25 and 26, 1689, he and other notables from the city were kidnapped and taken hostage to Chalons on the Marne . When Gerhardi returned from captivity after two years , he rebuilt the destroyed Mohren pharmacy and handed it over to the Cologne provisional officer Johann Simon Pliester.

For many generations, the symbol and namesake of the Cochemer Mohren Pharmacy was a black Mohr, carved from wood, which is still preserved today and represents King Balthasar as one of the Three Kings . After Johann Pliester's death, his son Johann Albert Pliester took over the Mohren pharmacy. In 1817 he and his two sons Johann Georg (born April 1, 1788) and Johann Josef Pliester (January 10, 1794) were mentioned together in a document as a pharmacist. Her sister Maria Margaretha Pliester (1790–1824) married the widower and pharmacist Johann Peter Zöller in 1817 , who after the death of his father-in-law Johann Albert Pliester moved into the house "Zum Mohren" in 1829 as the new owner. His successor was his son-in-law Carl Wilhelm Nettstraeter , who had married his daughter Anna Maria Zöller (1804–1835). In 1834 Nettstraeter moved the pharmacy to the patrician house of the family of Johannes Albertus Finger on the market square in Cochem, which was built in 1699 .
