Trondheim Central Station (Norwegian: Trondheim Sentralstasjon) or Trondheim S is the main railway station serving the city of Trondheim in Norway. The station is the terminus of both Dovrebanen and Nordlandsbanen. It is also a station on Trønderbanen, but not the terminus on that line. The first sections of the station was built in 1883, while the last major upgrade to the station was the construction of a new bus terminal in the mid 1990s.

South of the station the railway is electrified while it is not north of the station, so trains must change locomotives at the station. In addition to freight trains, Trondheim S is served by express trains on Dovrebanen and Nordlandsbanen in addition to regional trains on Rørosbanen and Meråkerbanen and commuter trains on Trønderbanen.

The railway station was between 1913 and 1968 the terminus for the Trondheim trams on the Elgeseter Line and Singsaker Line. In the mid 1990s a new bus terminal was built at the station, with all regional and long-haul buses departing from the terminal. But most city buses still use Munkegata Terminal in the city center and only some stop at the railway station.
