Geocache Description:


Lyngby Station er en central del af Nordbanen og betjenes af S-togslinjerne A og E. Stationen ligger midt i Lyngby by og fungerer som et vigtigt knudepunkt med sin store busterminal, der forbinder de nordlige forstæder til København. Arkitektonisk er stationen markant, idet Lyngby Omfartsvej er ført direkte hen over stationsbygningen og den tilstødende butiksarkade.

Stationen blev indviet 1. oktober 1863 som endestation for den første del af Nordbanen fra København. Året efter blev banen forlænget via Hillerød til Helsingør. Den oprindelige stationsbygning blev tegnet af Vilhelm Carl Heinrich Wolf, men blev senere nedrevet i forbindelse med udbygningen til dobbeltspor mellem Hellerup og Holte. Den nuværende stationsbygning blev opført lidt længere mod syd i 1890-1891 efter tegninger af Heinrich Wenck og N.P.C. Holsøe.

I 1936 blev stationen en del af S-togsnettet. Letbanen i Lyngby åbner nu meget snart: efter sommerferien 2026 bliver det muligt at køre med Letbanen gennem Lyngby-Taarbæk Kommune og hele vejen fra Ishøj til Lundtofte. Hovedstadens Letbane forventer fuld åbning fra Ishøj til Lundtofte i august 2026 med hyppigere drift, flere stationer og markant flere passagerer end ventet. Den nye letbanestation ("Lyngby") anlægges på Jernbanepladsen lige ved siden af S-togsstationen og bliver et centralt skiftepunkt mellem tog, letbane og bus.

Husk noget at skrive med.


Lyngby Station is a central part of the North Line and is served by S-train lines A and E. The station is located in the heart of Lyngby and functions as an important hub with its large bus terminal, connecting the northern suburbs to Copenhagen. Architecturally, the station is distinctive, as Lyngby Ring Road runs directly over the station building and the adjacent shopping arcade.

The station opened on October 1, 1863, as the terminus for the first section of the North Line from Copenhagen. The following year, the line was extended via Hillerød to Helsingør. The original station building was designed by Vilhelm Carl Heinrich Wolf but was later demolished in connection with the expansion to double track between Hellerup and Holte. The current station building was constructed slightly further south in 1890-1891, designed by Heinrich Wenck and N.P.C. Holsøe.

In 1936, the station became part of the S-train network. The light rail is now opening very soon: the full Hovedstadens Letbane (Greater Copenhagen Light Rail) line from Ishøj to Lundtofte, including the Lyngby-Taarbæk section, is expected to open to passengers in August 2026, shortly after the Danish school summer holiday ends — with more frequent service (5-minute intervals at peak times), more stations, and higher-than-forecast ridership. The new light rail stop will be built on Jernbanepladsen right next to the S-train station, making it a central interchange point between train, light rail, and bus.

Don't forget a pen.
