Malmö South, Svågertorp Station, (Swedish: Svågertorp Station, Malmö syd) is a new railway station south of Malmö, Sweden. Opened in 2000 in connection with the new railway and Öresund Bridge between Denmark and Sweden this station used to be served by the Oresundtrain. Since the opening of the city tunnel these trains pass it by and it is closed temporarily, awaiting the completion of a shunt from the tunnel line, after which it will be served by Pågatåg between Malmö and Ystad. It used to be the only station en route between Malmö Central Station and Copenhagen Airport, Kastrup Station. Due to the closeness to the Copenhagen Airport, some airlines have self-service check-in facilities at this station.
There is a big shopping centre at Svågertorp near the station. The largest shop is IKEA with 44.000 m² area.
