history
The station was opened on July 1, 1918 as part of the tunnel connection between Københavns Hovedbanegård and Østerport . Since May 15, 1934, S-Bahn trains (Danish: S-tog) have been running here on the first electrified line in Denmark. On October 19, 2002, the subway section of the metro was opened. The four-track old station structure, which runs in a south-west-north-east direction, was connected to the new underground platform, which runs roughly at right angles to it, via a pedestrian tunnel. The underground station was the terminus of the M1 and M2 lines until May 29, 2003, when the new section to Frederiksberg was opened.
