Turmantas railway station was built as a fourth-class railway station and opened in 1862 while building Saint Petersburg-Warsaw railway. It was built between Dūkštas and Kalkuny (Russian: Калкуны, currently named Daugavpils) stations, approximately half-way on the railway line. During the tsarist era the station was called Novoaleksandrovsk (Russian: Новоалександровск, currently named Zarasai), then Turmont. During World War II retaliating Nazi army, among other stations on this railway line, destroyed the passenger hall.[4] It was rebuilt between 1945 and 1960.
