history

The development of postal services in Andorra is closely linked to the history of the country and has contributed to the changed way of life in the Andorra valleys.

Today's Postal Museum in the Casa d'Areny-Plandolit building is the successor to the former Postal Museum, which was located under the roof of the Casa de la Vall . The Postal Museum documents the interactions that took place between the progress of telecommunications developments and the living conditions of the people of Andorra from 1928 to the present day. It shows the philatelic cultural heritage of Andorra in a didactic and interesting way.

Trivia

Post within Andorra was free until 2008. Letters abroad are handled by the French or Spanish post. Postcodes were introduced in Andorra in 2004.
