The great post office of Algiers is a magnificent and imposing building not to be missed during your visit to Algiers. Built in 1910 on the site of an old Turkish fort by the French architects Voinot et Tordoir, the neo-style building Moorish is the symbol of the oriental architectural trend of the time desired by Governor General Jonnart for the sake of rapprochement between the settlers and the Algerians.
