Postamt Bremen 5, Protected heritage post office building in Mitte, Germany.

Postamt Bremen 5 is a protected former post office building near Bremen's main railway station. The building was constructed from 1923 to 1926 to a design by Rudolf Jacobs, with a coat of arms with shield bearers above the entrance porch by sculptor Richard Kuöhl. In the late 1980s the building was completely gutted and the facade rebuilt behind.

Postamt Bremen 5 was the central building of the Oberpostdirektion Hannover in Bremen. The plot beside the main station was bought on 8 July 1915, but the First World War delayed work; after a 1922 competition, Rudolf Jacobs's second-placed design was built from 1923 and finished in 1926. From 1939, with interruptions, until 1945 it housed the central field post office, and in 1944 it became the central mail collection and sorting office. The post withdrew in 1996; the building has been a protected monument since 1993.

The name Hauptpostamt 5, still in common use, recalls its role as the central building of the Oberpostdirektion Hannover in Bremen. The coat of arms with shield bearers above the entrance porch was made by the sculptor Richard Kuöhl. Since 2012 a supermarket has occupied the ground floor, and the upper floors house a hostel, dance studios, a fitness centre and a restaurant training school.

The building sits right next to the main train station and is easily reached by the buses and trains that stop at Bahnhofsplatz. Those exploring on foot can easily make their way from there into the city center while taking in the protected facade up close.

The coat of arms with shield bearers above the entrance porch was carved by Richard Kuöhl, a sculptor famous at the time. The building was gutted in the late 1980s and the facade rebuilt behind, while a new hall for the rail connection went up behind the protected section.
