Rockhampton Post Office, Heritage-listed postal building in East Street, Rockhampton, Australia.

The two-story brick building features sandstone facing, classical architectural elements, and a prominent clock tower installed in September 1894.

George St Paul Connolly designed the structure, which Dennis Kelleher constructed between 1892 and 1896 for a total cost of £14,368.

The structure stands as a representation of Rockhampton's prosperity during the Mount Morgan gold rush period of the 1880s.

The building now accommodates commercial tenants, including a restaurant and café, after postal operations ceased in May 1997.

The building represents one of four stone-faced post offices in Queensland, with materials sourced from Stanwell Quarries.
