The railway station was opened in 1855 on a branch from Dziedzic to the Austrian Northern Railway.

The then established Kolejowa Street (Bahnstrasse), now Barlickiego Street, led to the original station, located on the outskirts of the city at that time.

First, it was the terminus of the line from Dziedzice, and in 1878 it was extended to Żywiec. It soon turned out that due to the increased capacity, the station became unsuitable for passenger service, so the city council decided in 1887 to build a new railway station. It was built in the years 1889-1890 by the workshop of the architect Karol Korn, according to the design of the architect Karol Schulz.

The design referred to the architecture of the railway stations of the Silesian and Galician Railway, established in 1888, linking Moravia, Cieszyn Silesia and Galicia, of which the Bielsko station became a part.

During the construction of the new station, the old platform hall was demolished, but the building itself was not demolished (it still exists at Wałowa Street).

The station was officially opened on February 26, 1890. Inside, waiting for the journey was to be made more pleasant by stylized polychromes made by Viennese artists.

On June 3, 1994, the station was entered in the register of monuments. In the years 1997-2001 it underwent renovation, during which the roofing, window and door carpentry were replaced, the platform shelter adjacent to the building was renovated and the polychromes in the Pompeian style were renovated. The renovated building was opened on September 15, 2001.

The historic station was awarded the title of "Modernization of the Year 2001" and is on the Industrial Monuments Route of the Silesian Voivodeship.
