History
Supported by financing by the city, the Iller Valley Railway connected Memmingen to the railway network in 1862. The first section from Memmingen to Neu-Ulm opened on 12 October 1862 and the southern portion from Memmingen to Kempten was put into operation on 1 June 1863. It was originally a joint post office and railway station.
It became a railway junction on 1 May 1874 with the opening of the Buchloe–Memmingen line. This connected Memmingen with the Bavarian capital of Munich. In 1879, the Memmingen station precinct had five tracks and three platforms. All the operations of the precinct at that time were handled on the site of today's station. The Kalchtor (a tower), the Lindentörlein (a gate in the wall), the Wasserturm (another tower) and a large part of the city walls were demolished for the rail infrastructure. A watering point and an accommodation building were located on the east side opposite the station building. Between them was a two-track roundhouse with a 12-metre turntable. A two track carriage shed with a loading ramp, a warehouse and turntable for wagons was built on the west side.
