Wremen is a railway station on the Nordseebahn line from Cuxhaven to Bremerhaven in Northwestern Germany. It is situated close to the village of Wremen.
The station was opened in 1896 as part of the extension of the Bremen-Bremerhaven line towards Cuxhaven. It has remained a minor station throughout its whole existence, as the single-track line towards Cuxhaven allowed for crossings only at Dorum railway station.
To the south, in the village of Imsum, there used to be another similarly minor station. However, it was closed and removed in the late 1970s. The Bremerhaven-Speckenbüttel railway station, south of Imsum, was closed in 1988. Therefore, Wremen is a notable distance north of the nearest station currently in operation.
Ever since the advent of motorcars, the station mainly serves commuters into Bremerhaven and tourists. At some point, even international InterRegio trains to Luxembourg and Saarbrücken called at the station, though this service was discontinued in the late 1990s.
