About our pharmacies in Essen and Hagen: pharmacist Peter Ricken
The pharmacy Apotheke Rathaus Galerie in Essen was founded by pharmacist Dr. Klaus Ricken in 1978 under the name Apotheke im City Center. Since this day it is known for its exceptional service and the individual expert care for all customers. As specialists in community pharmacy we set new standards in the field of pharmaceutical management.
2011 we opened the branch pharmacy Apotheke im Hauptbahnhof at Essen's main station, 2014 the branch pharmacy Apotheke Rathaus Galerie in Hagen.
