Sihlbrugg is a former railway station in the Swiss Canton of Zurich. It was closed permanently in December 2012, and there are no passenger trains scheduled to stop at the station since then.
Although named after the village of Sihlbrugg, the station is actually located nearly 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) north of the village, in the municipality of Horgen.
The station was a junction point between the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) line from Zug to Zurich Hauptbahnhof via Thalwil, and the Sihltal Zürich Uetliberg Bahn (SZU) line to Zurich via Sihlwald. The SBB line carried both suburban and longer distance services, and the station used to be served by line S21 of the Zürich S-Bahn. The suburban service on the SZU line between Sihlbrugg and Sihlwald was suspended in 2006, and that stretch of line no longer carries regular passenger services.
In the summer months, the station is deserved occasionally by the Zürcher Museums-Bahn heritage railway.
