The interior of the main hall of the station during demolition (2023), in the background the passage to the waiting room and sgraffito, which will be preserved and moved to the new station building.

In 2023, the railway station in Koszalin will undergo another reconstruction, which will last about a year.[1] Current station building will be demolished, and only a few elements from it, currently under conservation protection (including sgraffito from the main hall), will be used in the construction of the new one. The new station will have a modern shape and will be covered with a semi-transparent glass roof. On the ground floor there is space for commercial premises and a capacious waiting room. The new building of the Koszalin station will be put into use at the end of 2024.
