The Bergamo Post Office Building is a structure of architectural and artistic significance, built during the interwar period. At that time, Italian public architecture was characterized by the influence of the monumental style of the Novecento movement.

The building was designed by architect and engineer Angiolo Mazzoni and inaugurated in 1932 as part of the urban renewal plans for the city center.

Architectural Features and Works of Art

The building stands out for its simple lines and imposing forms, which reflect the aesthetic tastes of the era. In addition to its original function as a public service facility, the building houses important works of art.

Inside, there are two large canvases painted by Mario Sironi between 1932 and 1934, titled “Work in the City (Architecture)” and “Work in the Fields (Agriculture).”
