On 3 November 1858, the Royal Bavarian Eastern Railway Company opened the line between Munich and Landshut.

On 28 September 1925, Feldmoching station was electrified as part of the section from Munich to Freising.

[6] In 1944, the station was served every day by 32 local trains, going from Munich to Freising, Landshut and Regensburg.

Since 1972, the operation of the trackwork has been remotely controlled by using a Siemens class 59 (SP Dr S59) track plan push button interlocking at Oberschleißheim.

The terminus of the U2 line of the Munich U-Bahn is situated in an east-west direction at the station.

Previously, to reach the S-Bahn running towards the city centre, it was necessary to leave the U-Bahn station at its western end and walk a short distance through a shopping area.
