The traditional railway depot Staßfurt is a railway depot in Staßfurt (Saxony-Anhalt), which was put into operation in 1856. Today the exhibition on the Schönebeck – Güsten railway line is run by the association “Eisenbahnfreunde Traditionsbahnbetriebswerk Staßfurt eV”.

The more than 100-year-old roundhouse with the associated 20-m turntable can accommodate 24 locomotives. Until 1988 were from there steam locomotives of the series 41 and 50 used in scheduled passenger, express and freight services.
