The railway station of “Oleksandrivsk” was built during the construction of the Second Katerynoslav Railway in 1902-1905 and became an important hub for passenger and cargo transportation.
The northern part of the building housed service rooms, a medical station, a kitchen, and a buffet, while inside there were a ticket hall, waiting room, post office, and information bureau. The southern part consisted of administrative rooms and a storage room.
The station has an original shape and was built in a modernized form of historicism with the use of brick decor.
During the revolution of 1905, the station became one of the centers of armed rebellion in the city. And in August 1907, the prominent Ukrainian writer Lesya Ukrainka visited the station.
