The first station in Rzeszów was built in 1858 on the newly constructed line from Kraków to Lwów. 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 Kiev and Lviv.
