The station was built in 1876 for the opening of Svendborgbanen July 12, 1876. The main building is designed by N.P.C. Holsøe. The building was opened July 10, 1878.

The station building previously contained a DSB kiosk and a DSB travel agency. The kiosk has since been converted to a 7-Eleven store. DSB tickets are available for purchase in the 7-Eleven store. There also is a Fynbus customer service center that sells bus passes. The station contains an indoor waiting area, however the travel agency no longer is in operation.

The Fynbus local city bus stop is located on the street side of the station, and the regional bus station is located on the opposite side of the tracks. Fynbus operates local and regional bus lines from Svendborg.[5]
