Lethbridge station is a former railway station in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. It was built by the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1905-1906 and expanded in 1908 & 1911.[1]

The station was in use until 1971, when the dayliner passenger service to Calgary was discontinued. In 1984, the railyards were relocated to nearby Kipp and the station building was converted to use for the Lethbridge Health Unit.
