This is a wiki that aims to list the all Postal and Communication Museums around the world!
We love all things mail so it’s only natural that we are interested in museums which talk about it. Lets try to list all of them so we know what to visit when we travel! Feel free to edit the list — simply use the button at the end of this post.
Please group them by country, and then by alphabetic order within each country. For each entry, please try to include in the following format:
NAME WITH LINK
ADDRESS
If you have visited it and would like to share details (or photos!) of how it is, please write it on a reply and not on the wiki.
