Original Title: TIL that a pharmacy is more than 700 years old. Raeapteek (Talllinn, Estonia) was founded before 1422. The Burchart family owned it for 325 years, with ten generations of sons named Johann running it. The family sold the pharmacy in 1911 after Johann X Burchart died after being too sick to run it.
