Monkwearmouth Station Museum is the former railway station in Monkwearmouth, Sunderland, England. It was closed in 1968 and features a restored booking office dating from the Edwardian period.

The Tyne and Wear Metro and mainline trains still pass through the station without stopping, but the Metro does call at St. Peter's station a few hundred yards at most south of the old station.

It is part of the Tyne and Wear Museums group.
