Palazzo delle Poste is an early 20th-century post-office building in Trapani, Sicily. Designed by the architect Francesco La Grassa, it was constructed between 1924 and 1927 and remains a prominent example of the Liberty style in the city’s civic architecture. The building occupies a full urban block with a trapezoidal plan and defines the southern frontage of the former Piazza Cavour (today part of the city centre).
