Palazzo delle Poste, Modernist palace in La Spezia, Italy.

The four-story building features a U-shaped plan with exposed brick walls, travertine cladding, and a central clock tower accessed by symmetrical staircases.

Architect Angiolo Mazzoni completed this postal palace in 1933 to replace the previous offices located on Via Chiodo and Corso Cavour.

The clock tower contains a large Futurist mosaic from 1933 depicting themes of communication through panels created by artists Fillia and Prampolini.

The main entrance of the palace rises above street level through a grand travertine staircase, leading visitors to postal services across multiple floors.

Interior spaces display different types of marble including Portoro, Portargento, Zebrino, Travertino from Tivoli, and Rosso di Verona throughout the building.
