Odense Station (Template:Langx) is the main railway station serving the city of Odense, Denmark.[1][2] It is located in central Odense, on the northern edge of the historic town centre, and lies immediately adjacent to the Odense bus station and a stop on the Odense Tramway.[3]

Situated as a major station on the Copenhagen–Fredericia/Taulov line, it is also the terminus of the Svendborgbanen railway line between Odense and Svendborg. The first station in Odense, now demolished, opened in 1865 as the railway line across the island of Funen was completed. The current station building opened in 1995.

The current station building is Odense's third, having opened on 15 September 1995.[4][5] The first one, now demolished, opened in 1865 with the rest of the railway line across Funen (Dronning Louises Jernbane). The first station building was designed by the Danish architect Niels Peder Christian Holsøe, known for the numerous station buildings he designed across Denmark in his capacity of head architect of the Danish State Railways.[6]

The first station was replaced in 1914 by the still-existing building drawn by Heinrich Wenck.[7][8]

Historically, Odense station has been the central hub of railways on Funen, being the terminus for a handful of now closed railways:[9]
