The Bergen Railway Station in Bergen, Norway is the end station on Bergensbanen. It is located on the east side of downtown Bergen. The station was opened in 1913 four years after Bergensbanen itself opened, and has four platforms. The former station in Bergen was located further west.
The station building is one of the grandest in Norway. The architect was Jens Z.M. Kielland (1866-1926) who also designed Gamlehaugen and the stone buildings on Bryggen. The building was protected against facade modifications in 2003.
