The station is located on the Little South Line between Roskilde and Næstved via Køge, and is the terminus of an S-train line (Køgebugtbanen) that connects it to Copenhagen, and Østbanen that connects it with the Stevns Peninsula. The high-speed railway line Copenhagen–Køge–Ringsted doesn't pass by the station but is served by Køge North railway station in the northern outskirts of the town.

The station opened in 1870 with the opening of the original Zealand South Line, and was completely rebuilt in 1978–1983 and 2015–2018.

The station offers regional train services to Copenhagen and Næstved and S-train services to Copenhagen, both operated by DSB, as well as local train services to Roskilde and Stevns, operated by Lokaltog.
