A beautiful building, great that it is still used as a post office.

The former Imperial Post Office is a symmetrical two-story building with a large hipped roof and was opened at the same time as the inauguration of Darmstadt's main train station in 1912. The building was designed in the traditionalist style and decorated with baroque ornamentation of historicism. The facade is clad with shell limestone. The putti reliefs and the elaborate wrought iron bars in front of the windows decorate the administration building. The post office was gutted and rebuilt in 1990. The facade remained standing and was renovated. The roof was re-covered. The building is a historical monument. (Source: Wikipedia)
