Watertown station (Wisconsin)

The Watertown Depot in Watertown, Wisconsin, United States, is a railroad depot built in 1903 and operated by the Chicago and North Western Railway and the Milwaukee Road. The station served passengers from 1903 to June 1950. Afterwards, it serviced freight trains until 1976. It has since been converted into a florist shop, and most recently, a used car dealership. The Union Pacific Railroad's single-tracked Clyman Subdivision remains in front of the depot. The Canadian Pacific Kansas City’s main line is to the right.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 and on the State Register of Historic Places in 1989.
