Charlottenlund station is a suburban rail and former main line railway station serving the suburb of Charlottenlund north of Copenhagen, Denmark, as well as the nearby Charlottenlund Beach Park and the Charlottenlund Racetrack.[1] The station is located in the central part of the suburb where its main artery Jægersborg Allé crosses the railway line.

Charlottenlund station is located on the Klampenborg radial of Copenhagen's S-train network, a hybrid commuter rail and rapid transit system serving Greater Copenhagen. It is served regularly by trains on the C-line which have a journey time to central Copenhagen of around 15 minutes.[1] The station opened in 1863 with the opening of the Klampenborg Line between Copenhagen and Klampenborg, and has been served by the S-train network since 1934.[7] Its second and current station building was built in 1898 to designs by the Danish architect Thomas Arboe (1836–1917).[5]
