The Finnish Heritage Agency's description

Paimion asemarakennus on Turku-Karjaa -radan IV luokan asema ilman ravintolaa. Se on säilynyt hyvin rakentamisaikansa asussa.

Asemapuiston reunustama Paimion asemarakennus on valmistunut rautatiearkkitehti Bruno Granholmin tyyppipiirustuksin. Huolimatta myöhemmästä laajennuksesta sen ulkoarkkitehtuuri ja sisätilat ovat hyvin säilyneet. Asema-alueeseen sisältyy tavaramakasiinin lisäksi 1928 valmistunut asuinrakennus ja kaksi talousrakennusta.

Rautatieasema sijaitsee Paimion keskustaajaman pohjoisreunalla, Paimionjoen ja Vähäjoen yhtymäkohdassa.

Turku-Karjaa rautatiekomitea lähetti Paimioon rautatien rakentamista koskevan kirjelmän 1886. Radan rakennustyöt Paimiossa alkoivat 1897 ja rata avattiin liikenteelle 1899. Paimion asemarakennus ja aseman tavaramakasiini valmistuivat edellisenä vuonna. Asemaa laajennettiin ja sen tilajakoa muutettiin 1916.

Paimio station building is a class IV station on the Turku-Karjaa line, without a restaurant. It has survived well in its original form from the time of construction.

The Paimio station building, which is bordered by a station park, was completed to standard drawings by railway architect Bruno Granholm. Despite a later extension, its exterior architecture and interiors have survived very well. The station area includes, in addition to a goods storehouse, a residential building completed in 1928 and two outbuildings.

The railway station is located on the northern edge of the Paimio central built-up area, at the confluence of the Paimionjoki and Vähäjoki rivers.

The Turku-Karjaa railway committee sent a memorandum concerning the construction of a railway to Paimio in 1886. Construction work on the line in Paimio began in 1897, and the line was opened to traffic in 1899. The Paimio station building and the station's goods storehouse were completed the previous year. The station was extended and its room layout was changed in 1916.
