Jåttå Station (Norwegian: Jåttå holdeplass) was a railway station located at Jåttå in Stavanger municipality in Rogaland county, Norway. The station was served by the Jæren Commuter Rail between Stavanger and Egersund. The station was located 6.5 kilometres (4.0 mi) south of the centre of the city of Stavanger and was used as an extra stop for trains when there were football games at Viking Stadion.
