The construction of the Leipzig–Dresden railway between 1837 and 1839 was begun from both ends simultaneously.
The section from Dresden to Weintraube was opened on 19 July 1838 and at the same time the first station was opened within the borders of the modern town of Radebeul at the location of the current Radebeul-Weintraube station.

The section from Weintraube via Coswig to  Oberau was opened on 3 November 1838, prior to the completion of the Oberau Tunnel.
After the opening of the entire Leipzig–Dresden line in 1839, the whole line was doubled and this was completed in 1840.
Kötzschenbroda station was also opened in 1840.

Trains stopped in Kötzschenbroda and in Weintraube only on certain days in the early years.

Kötzschenbroda station gained a waiting room in 1868 and a freight facility was built on the Güterhofstraße to the south of the rail tracks and west of the station in 1871.
As a result of the incorporation of sets of points, it was reclassified from Haltepunkt to Bahnhof (station).
The first station building was built in 1872 in the garden of the Victoria Railway Hotel (Bahnhotels "Victoria") north of the tracks.

The Kötzschenbroda timetable of 1876 indicated that 37 daily passenger trains then stopped in Kötzschenbroda.

In the course of the installation of four tracks on the line in 1896, the level crossing at Bahnhofstrasse was replaced by a bridge for the two new tracks, which were built on an embankment to a newly rebuilt station.
After trains were diverted on to these new tracks, the old tracks were closed so that the embankment and the station could be widened.
Operations on all four tracks commenced in 1900.

As of 12 October 1899, a narrow-gauge interurban, the Lößnitz tramway (the Lößnitzbahn, popularly known as Lößnitzschaukel or "Lößnitz swing”) stopped a few metres from the station on the corner of Meißner Straße and Moritzburger Straße.
This line ran to Mickten, where it was possible to change to Dresden trams.

With the incorporation of Kötzschenbroda into Radebeul, the station was renamed Radebeul-Kötzschenbroda in 1935 and Radebeul West in 1941.

In 1946, some tracks were dismantled for war reparations to the Soviet Union.
The middle two tracks in Radebeul West station were removed; the remaining northern track was used for traffic to and from Zitzschewig and Berlin and the southern track for traffic to and from Coswig.

In the early 1960s Radebeul West Station was rebuilt in preparation for a future mixed-gauge operation and correspondingly large clearance gauge so that it could handle Soviet broad-gauge wagons (1520 mm gauge).
A modern signal box with relay interlocking (WSSB GS II Sp 64 b type) was installed during the reconstruction of the station with four platform tracks.
This was the first of this type installed by Deutsche Reichsbahn.
It went into operation on 27 March 1969.

Since 1996, Radebeul-Kötzschenbroda has been a stop on S-Bahn line S1 of the Verkehrsverbund Oberelbe.
The station's freight facility has since been demolished.

From October 2009 to February 2012, the covered section of platform 1 was closed because of the threat of a collapse of the platform canopy.
Between February 2012 and November 2013, the platform canopy was secured by a housing, so that passengers could reach a temporary platform during its reconstruction.
Since November 2013, the former platform on track 1 has not been used for rail purposes and public access to is now blocked.

In February 2012, the new long-distance tracks went into operation.
Two makeshift platforms were used until November 2013 for boarding and alighting.

The northern, listed building (entrance and former waiting room) was demolished and a supporting wall was built in its place in April 2013.
It previously served as the entrance to the platform tunnels.
The only entrance to the new platform is now from Bahnhofstrasse; it has stairs and a lift.

Signs reading Radebeul-Kötzschenbroda were installed on the new platform in November 2013.
There is also a sign reading Erlebnisweingut Schloss Wackerbarth ("Wackerbarth castle winery experience”).
