Pécs - Jókai tér

The small-town quarter between Széchenyi tér and Klimó Gyula (previously Landler JenO utca) is charmingly picturesque. Jókai tér is a delightful little street on which will be found the "Moor" chemist's shop, named after the wooden statues of Moors outside. It is the oldest chemist's shop in Pécs, having been established in 1697. Inside can be seen the original fittings and utensils supplied by the Zsolnay factory in 1897. The neo-classical building opposite is the "White Elephant" inn, steeped in tradition and easily recognizable by its original sign hanging outside. The Late Baroque vaulted ceiling in the coffee-house of the restaurant is supported by a 13th C. cluster-column which was introduced at a later date.
