Zurich Wollishofen (Template:Lang-de) is a railway station in the Wollishofen quarter of the Swiss city of Zürich. It is situated close to the western shore of Lake Zurich, and adjacent to the shipyard of the Zürichsee-Schiffahrtsgesellschaft, who operate the principal passenger boat services on the lake.

The station is located on the Lake Zurich left bank line, which originally formed part of the Zürich to Lucerne main line, although most main line trains now use the alternative Zimmerberg Base Tunnel routing. It is served by lines S8 and S24 of the Zürich S-Bahn. Verkehrsbetriebe Zürich tram route 7 serves a tram stop in front of the station.[1][2]
