Fort Mitchell Depot is a historic railway depot located at Fort Mitchell, Lunenburg County, Virginia. It is a one-story, four-bay, rectangular frame vernacular building that is approximately 20 feet wide and 48 feet long. It consists of two sections: the rear, freight portion of the depot, built about 1860, of heavy timber, mortise and tenon construction and clad with board and batten siding; and the front passenger portion of the depot built about 1884. The passenger portion consists of two segregated waiting rooms separated by a vertical, beaded board wall. It ceased use as a passenger station in 1956.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.
