Lac railway station serves the town of Laç in Lezhe County, Albania.

The station was opened in 1963 and remained the terminus of a line from Vore until a further extension to Lezhë was completed in 1981.^[1]

The station was once (along with Fier) a vital hub for transporting goods like ores and ammonium nitrate as well as passengers. In 1991, the International Fertilizer Development Center reported that 80-90% of fertiliser produced in Laç was transported by rail from the station, but that whilst there were sufficient wagons and optimistic journey times, the storage facilities at the station were inadequate.^[2]
