The Waldheim station is a former railway station in Waldheim, Saskatchewan. It was built by the Canadian Northern Railway. The 1+12-storey, stucco-clad, wood-frame building was built as a third class station, with the waiting, ticketing and cargo area on the main floor and the private living area for the station agent split between the main and second floor.[1] The building served as a railway station from 1912 until 1976; it is now used as a library and museum. The building was designated a Municipal Heritage Property in 1983.
