Constructed in 2004, this post office was designed especially for Snezka, with endurance to the difficult weather conditions being especially emphasized. Weatherproof shutters can be opened or closed over the post office's large windows, depending on how much protection is needed. Because no one (to the best of my knowledge) lives on Snezka, this post office serves tourists, who can mail postcards and commemorative covers. It also had a library as of 2015, although I don't know if this was official. Seating and tables are available for reading, or simply for hikers to take a break before heading back down. The roof is also open to tourists as an observation deck, as can be seen in this photo.

I don't know too much about this bus, other than that it appears to be operated by the Swiss postal service. It's a passenger bus, in spite of the operator, so it must be fairly unusual in today's world. Obviously, in the 18th and 19th Centuries it was possible to ride on mail coaches, but to see modern-day motorcoaches hauling primarily passengers would have to be unusual. Does anybody know much about these? The station I photographed this one in is adjacent to the Chur trains station, so close, in fact, that it's almost the same facility (and perhaps could be considered such).

This building is one of the exceptions in Marianske Lazne, in that it looks impressive, but isn't actually a hotel. It's the post office, in fact.
