Lund Central Station (Swedish: Lunds centralstation) or Lund C is the main railway station of Lund, Sweden and one of the busiest train stations in Sweden. It is located on the Southern Main Line and the West Coast Line.

There is a number of restaurants and convenience stores located in the station. ICA Malmborgs supermarket is located right next to the station.

The station is connected by railway to Kävlinge (Helsingborg, Gothenburg), Eslöv (Kristianstad, Kalmar, Stockholm), and Teckomatorp in the north direction. It connects in the south direction to Malmö, Ystad, Trelleborg and Copenhagen. There were previously direct railway connections to Bjärred and Harlösa. A direct train trip to Copenhagen Airport goes every 15 minutes and the journey takes about 30 minutes.

The station building was built in the 1850s and opened in Feb of 1858. It is one of the oldest still active train stations in Sweden. An expansion during 1872-1875 was drawn by Adolf Wilhelm Edelsvärd and another expansion 1923-1926 was drawn by Folke Zettervall. A significant expansion is in planning phase since 2015. Various options, including a fully underground station are under consideration.

This station is the terminus of the Lund tramway.
