Founding of the Society
Year	Authority / Notes
1820 -	According to Friedrich & Wolf (2000), this Union was founded in 1820 as the Apothekerverein in Westphalen, from which the Apotheker-Verein im Nördlichen Teutschland emerged. It later became the Apotheker-Verein in Norddeutschland = Norddeutscher Apotheker-Verein. In 1850 the latter merged with the Süddeutscher Apothekerverein (founded in 1848) to form the Allgemeiner Deutscher Apothekerverein, later known as the Deutscher Apothekerverein or Deutscher Apotheker-Verein.
Seat of the Society
City	Authority / Notes
Lemgo Germany	Lemgo is the place of publication listed for the first two journals of the Union, namely, Archiv des Apotheker-Vereins im Nördlichen Teutschland für die Pharmacie und deren Hülfswissenschaften and Pharmaceutische Zeitung des Apotheker-Vereins im Nördlichen Teutschland. Lemgo, therefore, seems likely to have been the seat for the Union.
