Medieval inspired railway station

The station consists of a large transverse block on the entrance side and two smaller ones on each long side. Together, they form a U shape around the built-in platform vestibule.

The building was given a free medieval-inspired design with a number of historical details. We find both the Norwegian lion, formerly NSB's vane, Bergen Castle and a Viking ship in the "tympanum" fields.

Above the portal-like front door is a steam locomotive with a snow plough.

The building material was hewn gneiss extracted from a quarry in Vaksdal.

The station building is protected under the Cultural Heritage Act. At the station, there are ticket sales in addition to several ticket machines. There are rooms for storage and public toilets.

Refurbishment of Bergen railway station

In 2015, the station was refurbished to make it more accommodating for travellers. There is new lighting in the entrance vestibule, platform vestibule and passageways.

There are new service points for ticket sales and security in the platform vestibule and the jungle of signs has been cleaned up. The floor in the entrance vestibule has new tiles, and the walls and archways have been repainted. New benches have also been set up in the various areas.
