Kløfta Station (Norwegian: Kløfta stasjon) was opened at Kløfta in 1854 as a part of Norway's first railway, the Trunk Line between Oslo and Eidsvoll.[1]

The station was originally called Kløften, but the name was changed to Kløfta in 1920. A new station was built at Kløfta as part of the construction of the Gardermoen Line in 1998.[2]
