History
Opened	1858

The first station in Rzeszów was built in 1858 on the newly constructed line of the Galician Railway of Archduke Charles Louis from Kraków which eventually reached Lwów in 1861. The station was initially supposed to be located further outside the town to the north in the village of Zaczernie, however ultimately it was placed just north of the town square, creating a u-shaped bend on the railway.

In subsequent years, Rzeszów became an important railway junction, with additional connections to Jasło (southbound), and Tarnobrzeg's district of Ocice (northbound). During World War I, the station was destroyed by the retreating Russian Imperial troops. Rebuilt in the interbellum, it was destroyed again in 1944 by the Wehrmacht. The current complex was built after 1945.

Since 2018 the station platforms are undergoing an upgrade, scheduled to be completed in 2021.[1]

The station offers connections to all major cities of Poland, also to Kyiv and Lviv.
