Posthuset, originally known as Postgirobygget, is a 26-floor commercial skyscraper completed in 1975 in central Oslo, designed by Norwegian architect Rolf Christian Krognes. At 111 meters, it ranks as the second tallest building in the city. The structure underwent a major renovation in 2003, during which seven additional floors were added and the building was reconfigured into two separate towers, subsequently becoming home to the Aftenposten newspaper. The building remains the property of Entra Eiendom AS, the state-owned real estate company, and serves as the main office for the Norwegian postal service, Posten Norge.
