English: The Stabler-Leadbeater Apothecary Shop is a historic apothecary's shop, now a museum, located at 105-107 South Fairfax Street between Prince and King Streets at the intersection of Swift's Alley in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia. During its working life, it was owned by generations of a Quaker family. Eventually, a dramatic decline in sales during the Great Depression forced the shop to close its doors. Almost immediately, in 1939, it was reopened as a museum. Today, most of the artifacts inside the shop are authentic and date to its closing. The building was added to the Hational Register of Historic Places in 1982, and designated a National Historic Landmark in 2021.
