Glan-Münchweiler station (officially called Glanmünchweiler until 1900 and also from 1943 to 1947) is the station of the town of Glan-Münchweiler in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate. It is classified by Deutsche Bahn as a category 6 station and has two platforms and sidings. The station is located in the network area of the Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Neckar (Rhine-Neckar Transport Association, VRN). The address of the station is Bahnhofstraße 3.
It was created on 22 September 1868 as a through station with the opening of the Landstuhl–Kusel railway. With the completion of the Glan Valley Railway (Glantalbahn), running from Homburg to Bad Münster, on 1 May 1904, which was built as a strategic railway, it became a junction station. It lost this function when the traffic on the latter between Schönenberg-Kübelberg and Glan-Münchweiler was discontinued in the early 1980s and the tracks were subsequently dismantled.
