Esbjerg station (Danish: Esbjerg Banegård or Esbjerg Station) is the main railway station in the city of Esbjerg in southwest Jutland, Denmark.[1][2] It is located in central Esbjerg, immediately adjacent to the Esbjerg bus station. It lies on the eastern edge of the historic town centre, between the districts of Indre By and Rørkjær.
It is the terminal station on the Lunderskov–Esbjerg line and the Esbjerg–Struer line. The train services from the station are operated by DSB and GoCollective,[4] and the station serves destinations including Copenhagen, Aarhus and Ribe.
The station was opened in 1874, and the present building, designed by Heinrich Wenck, was completed in 1904. With its three-storey towers flanking the central gable, it reflects a mixture of Historicist styles, some inspired by Dutch Renaissance architecture.
