    The Meiningen post office is a historic former post office in the old town of the southern Thuringian district town of Meiningen. The building, built as an imperial post office in the French neo-renaissance style, is a listed building. The building now houses a Postbank branch and a post office with a counter hall and self-service systems.

    The post office was built on behalf of the Reichspost according to plans by the architect August Kind, who worked as a post office building officer at the General Post Office in Berlin, and under the supervision of post construction officer Richard Kux (1848–1923) as the Imperial Post and Telegraph Office Meiningen. The building was built between 1877 and 1879 in the course of the reconstruction of the burned down parts of the city as a result of the great fire of 1874 on a newly parceled plot. The post office opened on December 15, 1879.
