The St. Chrischona Pharmacy was founded in 1911 by Mrs. Bertha Brieden-Jundt as the first pharmacy in Riehen. Until the establishment of other pharmacies in Riehen, it was simply called "Riehen Pharmacy". In 1931, it was relocated from the corner of Äussere Baselstrasse 45/Rebenstrasse to Kirchstrasse 1, and since the entrance was oriented towards Baselstrasse in 1982, the address has been Baselstrasse 31. Mrs. Bertha Brieden handed over the pharmacy to Mr. Wilhelm Engels in 1947, followed by Mrs. Johanna Frey from 1954 to 1985, Mrs. Eva Lehmann from 1985 to 2008, and Mrs. Barbara Ehrsam and Mrs. Monika Goebl from 2008 to 2022. Since March 1, 2022, the St. Chrischona Pharmacy has been owned by Mrs. Nicole Reiss and is being operated as an independent pharmacy under the management of Mrs. Esra Sirin.
