Palazzo delle Poste

Palazzo delle Poste is a post office building in Sabaudia with an exterior completely covered in blue mosaic tiles and large windows framed in red Siena marble. The structure has an elevated main entrance with a central staircase leading to a spacious entrance hall.

Architect Angiolo Mazzoni designed this structure between 1932 and 1934 during the founding of Sabaudia as a new planned city. It was part of the urban infrastructure built during that foundational period.

The building displays Italian rationalist architecture from the 1930s through geometric forms and clean lines. This design approach was typical for the newly planned city and continues to shape its appearance today.

The building is accessible via a central staircase from the elevated entrance and continues to function as a working post office. Visitors should note that access may be limited to operating hours since it remains an active postal facility.

The blue mosaic tiles covering the entire exterior represent the color of the House of Savoy, Italy's royal family. This color choice was a subtle political statement during the city's founding period.
