Sitting on a bus going along Via Roma in Palermo, the visitor cannot help but be impressed by the sight of the magnificent post office. According to is a large rationalist building designed by architect Angiolo Mazzoni in the early 1920s. The style of the building is typical of the fascist period whilst the interiors are futuristic, one of the few intact examples of the time, with frescoes by Benedetta Cappa, wife of Marinetti." The pictures below will take you on a tour, mostly of the exterior.
Great external shots and street context. Would love to see photographs of the staircases and interior generally
