Lenzburg Stadt railway station (German: Bahnhof Lenzburg Stadt) was a railway station in Lenzburg in the Swiss canton of Aargau. It was located at the station square (German: Seetalplatz) in Bahnhofstrasse.
The station was opened in 1895 by Schweizerische Seethalbahn Aktiengesellschaft, on the Seetal line to Wildegg. The station building by Emil Vogt had a small restaurant. By 1910, the line was electrified. The station (and line) were nationalized by Swiss Federal Railways in 1922. The present-day Malagarain street is built on some of the right of way.
Trains from Lenzburg Stadt to Lenzburg had to reverse at "Lenzburg Spitzkehre". Towards Wildegg, the line passed through a small, now pedestrian, tunnel in the railway embankment.
