Salem Post Office, also known as the Old Post Office, is a historic post office building located at Salem, Virginia. It was built in 1922-1923, and is a one-story, Georgian Revival-style, brick building. It was designed by the Office of the Supervising Architect under the direction of Louis A. Simon. The main entrance features fluted Doric order pilasters surmounted by a Doric frieze with triglyphs and a dentilated pediment. Additions were made to the rear of the building in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1989-1991. The post office was decommissioned in 1985, and subsequently occupied by doctor's offices. In 2013, Roanoke College purchased the Old Post Office.

The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. It is located in the Downtown Salem Historic District.
