With 139 years of experience to its credit, Goliad Pharmacy & Gifts is just as much a community icon as it is a business. Opened in 1870, as Baker Drugstore, this pharmacy is one of the oldest pharmacies in Texas. Baker Drugstore was located on the south side of the Courthouse square and was destroyed by fire in 1915. Later it moved to the west side to its present location. In 1925 L.H. Von Dohlen purchased Baker Drugstore and renamed it Von Dohlen-Byrd Pharmacy when the business was incorporated with City Drug, owned by Truston Byrd. In 1990 Goliad Pharmacy & Gifts became its new name, under the ownership of Gary Patrick and co-owner Tim Von Dohlen.
