This contribution reviews recent observational results concerning astronomical masers toward post-AGB objects with a special attention to water fountain sources and the prototypical source OH 231.8+4.2. These sources represent a short transition phase in the evolution between circumstellar envelopes around asymptotic giant branch stars and planetary nebulae. The main masing species are considered and key results are summarized.
