This merchant house was built around 1925. The ground floor was used as a pharmacy and the upper floor as a dwelling. This building was one of the first pharmacies in Aruba and was known by the name Botica Aruba. It was built by Mr. Dada Picus commissioned by the family Croes. Addisson Croes and Gustave Nouel were the owners of the pharmacy.
In 2021 Monuments Fund completed the restoration of this beautiful building.
