In 1886, the first railway line from Zbąszynek reached Wolsztyn. In the following years, Wolsztyn became a five-way railway hub (connections with Leszno, Grodzisk, Sulechów, and Nowa Sól).
In 1907, the Wolsztyn Locomotive Depot was built as a technical base for the growing hub. Initially, it had four berths in the hall.
In 1909, due to growing traffic needs, the locomotive depot was expanded to eight berths, giving it the appearance that has largely survived to this day.
