The historic entrance building was built in the 19th century in a typical, historicist style.
Similar station buildings with identical facade elements were built in Saxony, among others in Freiberg, Hohenstein-Ernstthal and Zittau.
After a reconstruction carried out in 1940/41, the character of the building changed completely.
It was adapted to the architecture of the time.
All the historical facade elements were removed.
The entrance area was overlaid with a so-called portico, which was later decorated with a wall painting (two workers, a weaver and a mechanical engineer).
This was characteristic of the station in the 1970s and shaped its appearance for travellers.
Typical of the Nazi period was a large heraldic eagle on the front sides of the building, which was removed in 1945.
Its former location could easily be seen from the colour and form of the much darker plaster until the building was demolished in 2010.

The historic entrance building was demolished in 2011 to allow barrier-free access and replaced by a simple functional building with a ticket machine, store for travel necessities, toilets and bicycle parking.
Two stops were set up for regional bus services.
There are many parking spaces for cars.

After reconstruction in 2011, Meerane station has two platform platforms, each with a platform length of 170 m.
