The United States Post Office in Christiansburg, Montgomery County, Virginia, is a one-story Colonial Revival brick structure completed in 1936 by the Office of the Supervising Architect of the Treasury Department under Louis A. Simon. The five-bay building features a denticulated cornice and a standing-seam metal gabled roof crowned by a small flat-roofed cupola. Notably, its interior contains a Works Progress Administration–sponsored mural by Paul DeTroot depicting local French and Indian War and Revolutionary War scenes. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989, the building stands as a contributing property within the Christiansburg Downtown Historic District.
