History

The current station is the second in Fredericia. It replaced the first station, which had been opened in 1866 and was located by the harbour from where there had been a connection via railway ferry across the Little Belt to Strib on the island Funen. The current station was opened in 1935 together with the opening of the Little Belt Bridge across the Little Belt.

Architecture

The second and present station building from 1935 in a functionalist style with a touch of Nordic Classicism was designed by the Danish architect Knud Tanggaard Seest who was the head architect of the Danish State Railways from 1922 to 1949. The station is one of only five in Denmark with a train shed covering the tracks and platforms. The old station at the harbour also had a train shed, which has been demolished.
