Mendenhall Station is a railway station in the town of Menden (Sauerland) in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia and is served by the Hönnetal-Bahn. It is located southwest of the town centre on the Hönne. The station was built in 1872. [3]

Station area

The station complex once included a kiosk, a restaurant, a ticketing hall and facilities for handling baggage and clearing freight. The station building itself is currently unused and in great need of repair. It was purchased by an investor in 2009.[4] A plan covering the further redevelopment and use of the station area was under consideration.[5]

Currently, the station area is being renovated by an investor. The historic buildings were demolished and replaced by new buildings.
