Mainz-Gustavsburg station is the station of the town of Ginsheim-Gustavsburg in the German state of Hesse on the Main Railway from Mainz to Frankfurt am Main. It is classified by Deutsche Bahn as a category 5 station.^[1] The station is served by the S-Bahn and some regional trains. The station was opened at its current location in 1858.

Between 1930 and 1945, Gustavsburg was a district of the city of Mainz and, as a result, the station was renamed Mainz-Gustavsburg. In 1945, the American and French occupying authorities transferred Gustavsburg to American administration and several months later it became part of the new state of Hesse. Although Gustavsburg became a self-governing municipality again as a result, the station is still called Mainz-Gustavsburg.
