History

The building was constructed in 1867 according to a standardised layout by the State Railways, namely the revised "third class". The classical design probably comes from Karel Hendrik van Brederode, who also designed several other models for the State Railways.
Meppel station was renovated in 1982, which mainly involved the station's interior. It became a national heritage site on 28 January 1998.
