À propos
Playing a unifying role in the mind of Kaiser Wilhelm II, the post office was one of his key concerns. Architect Ludwig Bettcher, attached to the Alsace-Lorraine post office, designed the project in the Rhenish neo-Romanesque style imposed by Kaiser Wilhelm II, and with great attention to functionality. Built from 1908 in Vosges pink sandstone, the post office was inaugurated in 1911. Today, it awaits renovation and is visible from the outside.
