Mailbox from BANEGÅRDSPLADSEN 1 A, 8000 AARHUS C

Automatic translation from Danish.

In the capital of Jutland, this mailbox has stood at the heart of the city. Here, it has received everything from love letters and small greetings to study applications and everyday messages, a testament to the many rhythms of life in the midst of Aarhus' hustle and bustle.

Aarhus is Jutland's oldest city, founded as Aros in the Viking Age, and has developed over the centuries from a trading post to a modern metropolis. The railway station, inaugurated in 1929, stands as an architectural landmark and center for traffic, trade and daily life, where generations have passed, met and said goodbye. This mailbox has been a silent participant in the city's flow, witnessing the many stories that unfold every day in the square in front of Aarhus Central Station.

A mailbox from Aarhus is therefore not just a piece of Danish postal history, but a physical testament to the city's pulse, movement and the small and large everyday moments that bind people together.

The mailbox measures approx. 34 cm in depth, 44.5 cm in width and 78 cm in height and weighs approx. 21 kg. It appears as a distinctive and iconic element in the home, whether it is used as an art object, Danish cultural heritage or personal keepsake.
The mailboxes appear in the condition they were dismantled in. A key to the mailbox is included.

The mailboxes are not inspected. The buyer will subsequently receive a gift certificate and have the mailbox sent free of charge with Post Nord to addresses in Denmark. There is a cost for delivery outside the country's borders, which is paid separately.
