Burg- und Nieder-Gemünden station

Burg- und Nieder-Gemünden station is, along with Ehringshausen (Oberhess) station, one of two stations in the municipality of Gemünden (Felda) in Vogelsbergkreis, Hesse, Germany. It lies at kilometer 38.0 of the Vogelsberg Railway (Gießen–Fulda). From 1901 to 1991, Kirchhain–Burg- und Nieder-Gemünden railway (also known as the Ohmtalbahn—Ohm Valley Railway) branched off here to Kirchhain via Homberg (Ohm). It is listed as a cultural monument under the Hessian Monument Protection Act (Hessischer Denkmalschutzgesetz), but the station building itself is in a neglected state.
