The station opened on 20 April 1882 to serve as the northern terminus of the new railway line from Struer to Thisted. In 1904, Thisted station also became the western terminus of the new Thisted-Fjerritslev railway line, which connected with the Fjerritslev-Frederikshavn railway line in Fjerritslev. The Thisted-Fjerritslev Line closed in 1969. In 2003, operation of the local rail services between Thisted and Struer were transferred from DSB to the public transport company Arriva.[4]
The station building from 1881 was designed by the Danish architect N.P.C. Holsøe who was head architect of the Danish State Railways.[3]
