Mindelheim station is the station of the district town of Mindelheim in the German state of Bavaria and lies about one km south of the original town.

In 2007/08, the station was renovated at a cost of €8 million. The four former tracks were reduced to three due to lack of space. A pedestrian underpass was built from Bahnhofstraße to Allgäuer Straße and an underpass for cars was built one km to the southwest; the level crossing on the old route of federal highway 16 was removed.

The station is located on the Buchloe–Memmingen railway and is the terminus of the Central Swabian Railway (German: Mittelschwabenbahn), which runs via Krumbach to Günzburg.

The station has three platform tracks. Platform 1 is next to the station building and platforms 2 and 4 can be reached via an underpass. Platform 1 is used by trains to Gunzburg and Memmingen, while platform 2 is kept free for transiting EuroCity services. When this is not necessary, services to Memmingen and Lindau stop on platform 2. Trains to Munich or Augsburg stop on platform 4.

There are two ticket machines. A ticket office operates during peak periods only.

Trains usually consist of a class 218 locomotive, hauling three to five Silberling carriages. In addition, the station is served by diesel multiple units of classes 642, 612, and now and then 628.
