The Old Corner Post Office

Korumburra, Victoria.


The former Korumburra Post and Telegraph Office complex was built in 1904.It is highly important in both a local and regional sense as a notable piece of architecture that demonstrates
the impact of Australian Federation and the importance of Korumburra as a major country town at that time, it is a fine example of Federation Queen Anne design by a government department.
Whilst Korumburra still has a post office, it is no longer located in the grand premises built in 1904. Today, the former Korumburra Post and Telegraph Office has a new lease on life
as an antiques and collectables shop, with the owners residing in the old postmaster’s residence.
