Station Oldenzaal

Oldenzaal is a railway station serving the town of Oldenzaal in the Netherlands. It was opened on 18 October 1865 on the railway line Almelo - Salzbergen.

The first station building, a unique design, was opened in 1865 at the same time as the railway. The building was derived from the station building of Bentheim and, like the station building of Almelo, built according to the half-timbered system. When the Maatschappij tot Exploitatie van Staatsspoorwegen took over the operation of the railway, the station building of Oldenzaal also came under the management of this company. Not much later, it was rebuilt in 1884 and 1887. The building was enlarged and was no longer symmetrical. The façades were also plastered.
