The station building as it opened in 1876

When the branch line of Lower Silesian-Mark Railway Company, operating Berlin–Wrocław railway, from Kohlfurth (nowadays Węgliniec) to Görlitz opened on 1 September 1847, it ran past the village of Moys. The railway junction at Moys was created when the Silesian Mountain Railway from Görlitz to Hirschberg (nowadays Jelenia Góra) was opened in 1865, but the junction didn't have a passenger station to serve the village until 1876.

The station is on PKP railway lines no. 278, which connects this station to Węgliniec, and no. 274, which connects Görlitz resp. the German-polish border via Zgorzelec to Jelenia Góra and further to Wrocław.
