Cieszyn 1888 - a small train stop was opened on the line connecting Moravia, Cieszyn Silesia and Galicia, which at that time served as an auxiliary to the main station (currently the station in Ceský Tešín). It had a small building with a bus shelter and one platform. In the building there was a waiting room with a cash register and rooms for the master and station staff. During World War I, additional tracks were laid and the lower part of the station building was added.
