Frankfurt-Zeilsheim station (German: Bahnhof Frankfurt-Zeilsheim) is a railway station located in the Sindlingen district of Frankfurt, Germany, on the Main-Lahn Railway. It is served by line S 2 of the Rhine-Main S-Bahn. The station opened on 13 May 2007 and is classified by Deutsche Bahn as a category 5 station.

The station is located on an embankment of the Main-Lahn Railway (Main-Lahn-Bahn), which marks the border between the districts of Sindlingen and Zeilsheim. Thus, the platform serving trains towards the inner city and Dietzenbach is in Sindlingen, while the platform serving trains towards Niedernhausen is in Zeilsheim.

A street called Sindlinger Bahnstraße to the north and West-Höchster-Straße to the south passes through an underpass to the east of the station. There are entrances from this street to each platforms, in both cases via a staircase and a ramp. A pedestrian underpass was built to provide a western entrance connecting to the Ferdinand-Hofmann estate and the Internationale Schule Frankfurt Rhein-Main in Sindlingen.

Although the station is in the Frankfurt district of Sindlingen and not in the Zeilsheim district, it was named after Zeilsheim because Frankfurt Sindlingen station already existed. The name Frankfurt Sindlingen North station was rejected by Deutsche Bahn.

The station cost € 6.75 million to build, funded by the city of Frankfurt, Hesse and the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (Rhine-Main Transport Association).
