The station opened on 3 June 1847 as Schiedam, with The Hague – Rotterdam railway line. The branch to Maassluis opened in 1891, extended to Hook of Holland (Hoek van Holland) two years later. In 1967 the station was renamed Schiedam-Rotterdam West, and in 1998 it was renamed again to Schiedam Centrum.
In 2000, the railway building was completely renewed as part of the extension of the East-West Line of the Rotterdam Metro, which has called at Schiedam Centrum since November 2002.
In 2017, railway services to Hook of Holland ceased as the line would be converted for metro operations. Service to Hook of Holland resumed on 30 September 2019, now operated by RET Metro Line B.
