Klepp Station
Klepp Stasjon is a village in the municipality of Klepp, located in the county of Rogaland, Norway. It is located by lake Frøylandsvatnet.
When the Jæren Line was constructed in 1878, the administrative centre of Klepp (Kleppe) was somewhat offset from the convenient path of the railway, so the railway station serving Klepp was placed 3 km east of the centre. The village of Klepp Stasjon (literally Klepp Station) grew up around the railway station.
