The Königshofen (Baden) station was opened on November 1, 1866, when the 53.48 kilometer section of the Heidelberg – Würzburg line between Osterburken and Lauda was put into operation. On October 23, 1869, the Grand Ducal Baden State Railways opened the line in the Taubertal, since then Königshofen has been a separation station .

The station was given its current appearance in the 1970s. On June 1, 1970, it was converted into a branch of the Lauda train station. In 1978 the last two employees left the station. It has been vacant since then. At the end of the 1980s, the Deutsche Bundesbahn sold buildings and land to the city of Lauda-Königshofen.

At the Königshöfer Fair 2016, the Historical & Cultural Group presented an exhibition in their club rooms in the town hall, which was dedicated to the 150th birthday of the station. At the end of the 2010s there was renovation work at the Königshofen train station.
