The Great Northern Railway Depot on Front St. in Mayville, North Dakota was built in 1897. It has also been known as the Burlington Northern, Incorporated, Depot. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.[1]
A predecessor building was burned in a fire. This building, as a new depot, was built in style "noticeably superior to the type of facility usually provided a community the size of Mayville."[2]
The depot is now home to the Goose River Heritage Center, a museum of local history.[3]
