History

The station was opened in 1868,[1] two years after the connection between Drammen and Vikersund was completed.[2] The first station building, designed by Henrik Bull, was finished in 1868. It was demolished at an unknown date. A second building was built in 1915 by Norwegian State Railways[1] when its architectural office was run by Gudmund Hoel.[2]
