History
On October 23, 1869, the Royal Württemberg State Railways put the station into operation with the Crailsheim–Mergentheim line.
The station building is now privately owned. The building houses a mechanical signal box with lever frames, from which the station's switches and semaphore signals are set via double-wire lines. Satteldorf station has been back in passenger service since September 10, 2007, after no passenger trains had stopped there for 22 years.
At the station, the depot of the construction company Leonhard Weiss has a siding.
Cultural heritage
The former reception building is a listed building and is part of the Bad Mergentheim-Crailsheim railway line: Württembergische Tauber Valley Railway with stations, outbuildings, bridges, tracks and all stationary and movable equipment.
