Bergslagsbanans station, Railway station building in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Bergslagsbanans station is a two-story railway building in Gothenburg featuring Renaissance revival design. The facade displays plastered brick walls, rusticated stonework, and round-arched windows on the ground floor.

The Bergslagernas Järnvägar commissioned Axel Kumlien, with his brother Hjalmar as collaborator, to design the station, built 1879–1881 by builder Philip Jacob Rapp and inaugurated on 1 October 1881. It served as terminus for the 478 km line from Falun and also for Västkustbanan and the Gothenburg–Borås line. Passenger traffic moved to Gothenburg Central in 1930, after which the building housed SJ and Banverket offices; it became a listed building in 2008.

The name "Vita huset" (the White House) has been used locally since 1923, referring to the light-plastered facade. The entrance is decorated with the coats of arms of Gothenburg and Dalarna, linking the building to the Bergslagen Railway's two terminal points. The BJ crest above the right entrance, symbolising ironwork, was the company's trademark. The park by the entrance, laid out in 1935, was known locally as "BJ-parken".

The building is located at Bergslagsgatan 2 in the Gullbergsvass area and functions as office space. While no longer open for station use, the exterior remains visible as you walk through the neighborhood.

Above the right entrance sits the crest of Bergslagernas Järnvägar, a visible mark of railway history. This detail connects the site to an important chapter in Sweden's railway development during the 1800s.
