Helsingør station (Danish pronunciation: [helse̝ŋˈøɐ̯ˀ stæˈɕoˀn]) is the principal railway station serving the city of Helsingør (English: Elsinore) in North Zealand, Denmark. It is located in the centre of the town, close to the Port of Helsingør, and immediately adjacent to the Helsingør ferry terminal and the Helsingør bus terminal.
The station is the terminus of the Coast Line to Copenhagen, the Little North Line to Hillerød and the Hornbæk Line to Gilleleje. It also provides easy access to the ferries of the Helsingør–Helsingborg ferry route to Helsingborg, Sweden.
The station opened in 1863 and was moved to its current location in 1891. The second and current station building was designed by architect Niels Peder Christian Holsøe in collaboration with architect Heinrich Wenck in a Neo-Renaissance style. It was listed in 1990.
