This "modern brick building" with its distinctive cupola was built in 1891 by pioneer Sonoma merchant Frederick Duhring. It replaced the old Duhring Store, an adobe built in 1850 which had housed his mercantile establishment. In 1911 this building was among those saved when water from a basement well was pumped on a disastrous fire. On this site there has been a business serving the citizens of Sonoma for over 130 years.
