Vangede station is an S-train railway station serving the Vangede district of Gentofte Municipality north of Copenhagen, Denmark.[1] It is located on the Farum radial of Copenhagen's S-train network.[2]
History
Vangede Station was not one of the original stations of the Slangerup Line. It was created in 1906 and the first station building was a red brick building designed by Heinrich Wenck. It was demolished shortly after a new station building opened in 1968 in connection with the preparation of electrification and conversion of the railway into an S-train line.[3]
In popular culture
The station is used as a location in the films Sønnen fra Amerika (1957) and Landsbylægen (1961).[4]
