Fuorigrotta railway station () is a railway station in Naples, Italy. It is served by the Cumana railway line, managed by EAV.

History The station, opened on July 1, 1889, is reached after passing through a -tunnel that runs through the Posillipo hill and takes its name from its location "outside the grotto" (Fuorigrotta).

In the late 1930s, during the undergrounding of the Mergellina-Fuorigrotta railway section, the station was converted into an underground facility. The new station building was constructed between 1939 and 1940, based on a design by architect Frediano Frediani.Due edifici dell'architetto Frediano Frediani a Napoli, in Casabella, anno LII, n. 548, Milano, Electa, luglio-agosto 1988, p. 28, ISSN 0008-7181 (WC · ACNP).
