The station opened in June 1903 during the reign of King Chulalongkorn, along with the first phase of the Southern Line from Thon Buri Station to Phetchaburi Station. At the time, the railway route was called "The Phetchaburi Railway Route".
In 1911, the line was extended to Cha-am Station and then southwards to Sungai Kolok and Padang Besar during King Vajiravudh's reign.
