The station was opened in 1927. Electrification took place in 1965. The station consists of two platforms, each serving one track of the railway, a single-level secured crossroad and the signalling control building. Station only serves regional trains of Łódzka Kolej Aglomeracyjna from Łódź to Sieradz and PolRegio trains from Łódź to Poznań and Wrocław.

Due to upgrades of the railway, since 2018 the station was repurposed as a temporary branch post, by installing two switches between the tracks on the western side of the station. After refurbishment is done, this will become an automatic block post[4].
