This station has existed since 1862. It was built with the aim of bringing coal from Córdoba to feed the local ovens. Over the years, the station has been modernised and remodelled. Nevertheless, the pavilions are still conserved next to the main façade. These constructions are catalogued as a part of Cultural Interest Goods.

In 1863, a marquee was installed in the station by the engineer Antonio Arriate. In 2003, this marquee was removed, which caused an important controversy between several entities. This marquee was the first iron structure of this type erected in Málaga in the 19th century and has a great historical value for the Industrial Heritage. Fortunately, in 2015, the City of Málaga approved its restoration.

Another event took place in 2015 as well: the 150th anniversary of the arrival of the railroad in Málaga was celebrated. In 1865, the first railway line was put into service in Málaga, for the Málaga-Córdoba section. It was a very important fact for the development of the city. In addition, the Municipal Heritage Museum organized an exhibition that simulates the route from Córdoba to Málaga.
