History

The history of the station dates back to 1885, when it was opened on January 25, when the construction of the line linking Iwanogród (Dęblin) and Dąbrowa Górnicza was completed. During World War I, the Russians partially blew it up, but the railway station was rebuilt soon after by the Austrians who occupied the city in a slightly changed form. During the war in 1939, one of the wings and the front part from the track side were damaged. The damage was repaired by the Germans, removing details from the façade and changing the shape of the windows. The building existed in this form until 1966. Five years later, in 1971, a new station building with greater functionality than the previous one, which still stands, was put into use.

Train services

Currently, Kielce is an important intersection of railway lines, running to Częstochowa and Lubliniec, Warsaw, Kraków and Sandomierz.
