The Hoofdpostkantoor Maastricht was an expressionist post office and apartment building in Maastricht, Netherlands, designed by architects Daniël Knuttel and Marinus Jan Granpré Molière and completed in 1914. Built of brick and wood as a prominent corner structure, it bore the bold, dynamic formal language characteristic of expressionist architecture. Designated a Rijksmonument, the building served its original postal function before being converted to residential apartments. It stood until its demolition in 2010.
