Mietków is a railway station on the Wrocław Świebodzki–Zgorzelec railway in the village of Mietków, Wrocław County, within the Lower Silesian Voivodeship in south-western Poland.
History The original station was opened by the Wrocław-Świdnica-Świebodzice Railway Company as Mettkau on 29 October 1843. A station building was constructed in 1853. After World War II, the area came under Polish administration. As a result, the station was taken over by Polish State Railways (PKP) and was renamed to Mietków.
In the 1980s, around of the Wrocław Świebodzki–Zgorzelec railway was shifted slightly north to make space for the Mietków Lake which was under construction at the time. The original 1843 station closed, and was converted into sidings, and a new station was built as a halt some north of the original location. It opened in 1983.
