Nyírbátor post house, 1993

​

Nyírbátor is the economic and cultural center of the southern part of Nyírség, the ancient nest of the Báthory family. The city is the owner of one of the most valuable monuments of the Great Plain, the most beautiful hall church in our country, and thus the tourist center of Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County. Previously, the postal needs of a population of nearly 16,000 people were served by a post office building that, many years ago, could not fully meet the expectations of the population, and with the development and growth of the city, it became unsuitable for the performance of postal tasks. The idea of building a new post office building came up as early as 1965, but it failed due to lack of necessary investment funds. Finally, in 1991, preparations for the construction of a modern post office could begin, for which HUF 60 million was allocated from government investment funds. The plans of the building were prepared by Keletterv Kft. in Debrecen, while the construction was carried out by Építőipari és Szolgáltató Vállalata of the Nyírbátor municipality. In the new post office's net floor area of 811 m2, 8 combined reception and one package reception workplaces were created. In addition, the main cash register, delivery room, filing room, telex room, parcel warehouse, rest and other additional rooms, and a separate newsstand workplace were created in the audience area. Public traffic is organized on the main street, and postal technology functions can be served from the post yard. In formal design, the street facade part is defined by the small-town atmosphere. The building was built using traditional masonry technology, with parts with pillar frames in some places, with a monolithic reinforced concrete slab, which is closed by a high roof. Sand-lime brick, green and yellow doors and windows and steel structures are dominant in the use of materials. Post Office of Debrecen, December 13, 1993.
