Gothenburg Central Station

BOOK TICKETS

Begin your incredible journey by train from Gothenburg Central Station, the oldest station in Sweden. It was built on the former site of a prison in 1858. In 1923, nearly a century after Gothenburg Main Station was opened, it was rebuilt and enlarged, but unfortunately, a fire destroyed much of the building the following year. After further reconstructions, the station looks the same as it did in 1923 with its wood pillars, limestone floor, and glass ceiling.

The Gothenburg Station serves 27 million travelers each year, making it the second most popular station after Stockholm. While you are waiting for your train, wander around the station and find some interesting pieces of art like Laura Ford's bronze sculpture "Weeping Girl." The station has a number of excellent facilities that will make your time before departure fly by. There are shops, restaurants, cafes and lounges to choose from. Additionally, you can head out and explore the beautiful center of Gothenburg.
