Farmacia Porta Rossa [Porta Rossa Pharmacy]
The pharmacy, whose origins seem to date from the late 19th century, was bought by its current owners, the Savoia family, in 1945. It still conserves the furnishings consisting of wooden shelves occupying two walls of the sales room, and a wealth of pharmaceutical equipment,composed of ewers, majolica jars and ceramic vases of Cantagalli make, dating from the first half of the 20th century.
