The station opened on October 31, 1894, when it was constructed on a branch line from Razdelnaya station.[1]
A steam locomotive with two or three carriages brought passengers along the branch line from Razdelnaya station. A passenger ferry from Lisy Nos to Kronstadt connected with the trains.[2]
The old Lisy Nos station was closed in 1928 and the Razdelnaya station was renamed as "Lisy Nos".
