Dorsten station is the central station in the town of Dorsten in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. It is located east of the town centre and the line is orientated north-south.
The station was built in 1879 as a joint station of the Rhenish Railway and the Dutch Westphalian Railway. The Gelsenkirchen-Bismarck–Winterswijk railway of the Dutch Westphalian Railway was built to supply the textile industry of the Achterhoek region around Winterswijk with coal, but it was also used extensively in the opposite direction to bring food into the growing Ruhr district. The station building, built on an island between the tracks of the Duisburg–Quakenbrück railway on the west and the Gelsenkirchen-Bismarck–Winterswijk line on the eastern side, is now largely in its original condition.
