History
2004 Station opened

Flintholm is an important S-train and Metro interchange station in Copenhagen, Denmark. Opened on January 24, 2004, it is located in the west of Copenhagen where the Frederikssund S-train radial crosses the S-train ring line. It is located in fare zone 2.

The station has two levels. On the lower level the ring line runs roughly north-south with side platforms (tracks 11 and 12). On the upper level, tracks on Frederikssundbanen and the Metro run on bridge constructions with a center platform for each above the ring line tracks. The bridges continue west of the station, above a bus terminal and the street Grøndals Parkvej towards Vanløse station.

A large monumental glass roof covers all the tracks and the bus terminal. The design of the station has earned it various awards, among others the European Steel Design Awards.
