Opposite the Schäfersruh restaurant is another highlight: the old train station in Schapen. It was inaugurated in 1906. The stationmaster lived upstairs in the house. The steam locomotive took day-trippers to Elm and Asse – an early era of tourism. Later, only freight traffic ran, and in 1971, train service was discontinued altogether, and the tracks were dismantled. The old station fell into disrepair until it was declared a listed building in 2000.
In addition to the beautiful building, there is also a railcar from the early 20th century to admire.
