post office hours in basel

Hi all,

Can someone tell me the post office hours in basel??

Please, please. I cant seem to understand the website cause i don't speak any of the languages to find out if there is even a schedule.

Cheers all

Jeanie

Re: post office hours in basel

Go here:

http://www.post.ch/de/index/uk-priva...erzeichnis.htm

Put "Basel" in the "Ort" field then click on "Suchen".

A list of Post Offices in the Basel area will appear, then just click on "Info" on the one you want to know more about the opening hours.

"Suche" means "Search" in german, from the homepage the link you should have clicked at is "Poststellen Suche", inside the grey box at the right bottom of the page.

Re: post office hours in basel

Oh another question for either of you or any others,

Is it possible to get the postcode for a Street name in Basel somewhere, somehow??

Thanks again

Re: post office hours in basel

The English version of that is here.

Edit: I've just discovered that the search function is quite clever.
  • If you enter "Basel" in the "Town" field it will list all the post offices in Basel
  • If you enter "4001" in the "ZIP" field it will take you straight to the post office at Rüdengasse 1
  • If you enter "40" in the "ZIP" field, it will list all post offices with a post code which match.
  • If you enter a partial Town name, it will list all post offices which match.

See the Search tips for more information and examples.
