Interesting. But I appreciate that it can be more interactive things for kids.

The Mauritius Postal Museum is a fascinating museum located in the capital city of Port Louis. The museum is dedicated to the history of postal services in Mauritius and showcases the evolution of the postal system in the country.

The museum has an extensive collection of stamps, postcards, and other philatelic items, including the famous Blue Mauritius stamps. These stamps are rare and highly valued by collectors worldwide, and the museum has an impressive collection of them on display.

Apart from the stamp collection, the museum also houses several exhibits showcasing the evolution of postal services in Mauritius. Visitors can see old postal equipment, including mailboxes, stamping machines, and postmen uniforms. There is also a collection of old photographs and documents that provide a glimpse into the past and how the postal system played a vital role in the country's development.

One of the museum's highlights is the replica of an old postal coach, which was used in the early days to transport mail from one town to another. Visitors can get on board the coach and experience what it was like to travel in those times.

The museum also has a gift shop where visitors can purchase postcards, stamps, and other souvenirs. There is also a cafe on the premises where visitors can relax and enjoy a snack or a cup of coffee.

Overall, the Mauritius Postal Museum is an excellent destination for anyone interested in history or philately. It's a unique and educational experience that provides a glimpse into the country's past and the role that the postal system played in it.

Relativne male muzeum, ale obsah nas prijemne prekvapil. Napriklad srovnání doby doruceni zprav v minulosti a dnes je neuveritelne. Doporucujeme navstevu.

Nett, leider Baustelle!
Die Blaue Mauritius ist die seltenste und mit 8Mio Euro die wertvollste Briefmarke der Welt!

Ça vaut la peine de le visiter.
Vraiment très bien.

For the 500MARupee entrance we expected to see a few stamps a be on our way, but was pleasantly surprised. There is a detailed, bilingual, exhibition telling the history of the postal service and how it developed, along with the railway and air services.additionally, a section is dedicated to the local romantic story of Paul et Virginie.

Très intéressant. Histoire d'un pays, l'esclavage, la colonisation..,tout est expliqué. Le cadre est paisible...
A faire absolument. comptez 3 heures minimum.

too much hot weather, but natural view awesome

Great museum situation inside the post office. A 10 minute walk from Waterfront. Entrance fee application, not expensive consessions for seniors see pictures. Doesn't take too long to walk around. Interesting history about sending mail. Wasn't busy only me and hubby. Great visit if you want to get out of the sun and heat. Highly recommended

We visited three times, and it was closed every time, despite the times on the website saying it'd be open. On the first visit, it was closed for lunch. On the second visit, they were open but would not let us enter because it was too close to closing time. On the third visit, the door was locked tight, despite the website saing it should be open.

Never gone there ????

Même si vous ne voulez pas visiter le métier, il faut rentrer dans le bâtiment afin de voir la boutique du musée. Cette dernière comporte quelques beaux articles à prix doux.

Très intéressant musée sur l'histoire de la Poste, situé proche Caudan, on y passe un très bon moment (durée 2 heures environ)...L'endroit est agréable , situation dans bâtiment historique

El museo se encuentra en el antiguo edificio puestos en Water frente. Encontrará a la derecha la puerta del correo si quieres comprar sellos y a la izquierda la entrada del museo. Se explica la historia muy bien.
