History

Street facade of the station building

The station opened in 1871 as the section from Nørresundby to Frederikshavn of the new Vendsyssel Line opened on 16 August 1871.[4] The station building was designed by the architect N.P.C. Holsøe.

On 7 January 1879, at the opening of the Limfjord Railway Bridge, the Vendsyssel line was connected with Aalborg station, the Randers-Aalborg railway line and the rest of the Danish rail network.[5]

In 1966 the station was moved to its current location and the old station was closed and torn down.
