Frederikshavn station (Danish: Frederikshavn Station or Frederikshavn Banegård) is a railway station serving the town of Frederikshavn, Denmark.
The station is the terminus of the Vendsyssel railway line from Aalborg to Frederikshavn as well as the Skagen railway line from Frederikshavn to Skagen. It offers direct inter-city connections to Copenhagen and regional rail services to Aalborg operated by DSB as well as local train services to Skagen operated by Nordjyske Jernbaner.
