The station's history is closely tied to the establishment and exploitation of the Brașov-Zărnești local railway. The line and its dependencies were built by a company named "Brassó-Háromszéki Helyi Érdekű Vasutak", established in 1890. The station was inaugurated on 6 June 1891 and the first official train passed through it on 13 June 1891. From the very beginning, the exploitation of the line and thus the station was undertaken by MÁV, the Hungarian Royal State Railways. From 1919 on, it was continued by CFR, the Romanian StateRailway Company, who nationalized the line in 1932. Between 7 March 1892 and 16 mai 1933 it was also the terminus station of Brașov–Satulung Suburban Railway and, from 27 September 1908 on, a station on Brașov-Făgăraș-Sibiu railway. In the first years, the station had only three-four tracks, a small warehouse with a platform and a small locomotive depot, with water supply and a turntable. The main building had a hallway, a waiting room for the first and second classes, a ticket sales office, and two rooms for the personnel's office. In 1908 it was extended sideways to include a third class waiting room and an apartment for the station master. The latrines were outside. The personnel consisted of a station master, a station supervisor and two switchmen. On 9 October 1916, during the World War IBattle of Brașov, a Romanian company from the 24th Infantry Regiment defending the railway station was surprised by a machine gun section of the German 189th Regiment and completely wiped out. In 1964–1966 a new, larger station building was erected to the South-West of the old one and the tracks were extended to 10 in 1972–1973. Centralized traffic control was also introduced in 1964. From 2005, private rail company Regiotrans was granted exclusivity on Brașov-Zărnești Railway.
