Dortmund-Mengede station is located in the Dortmund suburb of Mengede in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.

The station was opened in 1848 as part of the trunk line of the former Cologne-Minden Railway Company.

The walkway tunnel is not yet equipped with lifts, so people in wheelchairs can only use the platforms with assistance.
