Shizuoka Station opened on 1 February 1889 when the government railway reached the city from Kōzu, though the planned inaugural ceremony had to be scaled back to a simple affair because a fire that day destroyed roughly 1,100 buildings downtown. The station building was rebuilt in 1907 and again in 1935. Tōkaidō Shinkansen platforms were added on 1 October 1964, and freight operations were transferred to Higashi-Shizuoka in October 1967. Tracks were elevated in stages in 1977 and 1979, and the Parche station-building complex opened in October 1981. JR Central took over at privatisation in April 1987, automatic ticket gates for Shinkansen — a national first — were installed in June 1997, and station numbering CA17 was added in March 2018.

Shizuoka pioneered automatic ticket gates on the Tōkaidō Shinkansen — its Shinkansen turnstiles, installed in June 1997, were the first such gates on any Shinkansen line in Japan.
