Bahnhof Waldheim, Railway heritage building in Waldheim, Germany

Bahnhof Waldheim is a former railway junction on the west side of Waldheim, beyond the Zschopau. Its reception building, opened on 21 December 1920, was partly demolished in January 2015; the remaining part stands empty. The island platform, now the only platform, has the main-line track opposite it, and signal boxes A and B entered service in 1896.

The station opened on 1 September 1852 with the Limmritz–Chemnitz section, the last stretch of the Riesa–Chemnitz line. Two branch lines began here: to Rochlitz on 6 December 1893 and to Kriebethal on 10 December 1896. The Rochlitz line closed on 15 August 1998, the Kriebethal line on 31 December 1998, ending Waldheim's role as a junction.

The station's name lives on in the hourly RB 45 line Chemnitz–Mittweida–Döbeln–Riesa–Elsterwerda, run since June 2016 by the Bayerische Oberlandbahn under the Mitteldeutsche Regiobahn brand, after DB Regio Südost. The island platform, once used for switching Rochlitz trains, is now the only platform, with the main-line track opposite. The long freight shed and the turntable-linked Heizhaus, where locomotives for shunting and the paper-factory handovers in the Zschopau valley were based, stand unused.

The station sits in central Waldheim on Bahnhofstr and is easy to reach on foot from the town center. The area is flat and open, giving clear views of the railway buildings and their architectural features.

The station once had three lines, but the branch to Kriebethal closed on 31 December 1998. Its long freight shed and the turntable-linked engine house, where locomotives for the paper mills in the Zschopau valley were stabled, now stand unused.
