Nagahama Station (長浜駅, Nagahama-eki^?) is a train station on the Hokuriku Main Line of West Japan Railway Company located in Nagahama, Shiga, Japan.

Between 1991 and 2006, the station was the dividing point of electrification systems (south of the station, including the station, was 1500 V DC and north was 20,000 V AC) so that all regional trains from Osaka and Kyoto using DC-only electric multiple units terminated at this station. In 2006 the DC zone was extended to Tsuruga Station, but there still exist some terminating trains at Nagahama.
