A 19th century station here was destroyed during World War II. The current building dates from 1952 according to the design of architect Syromyatnikov. An old locomotive was placed in the station forecourt in 2021 as a monument, commemorating the model produced by the Soviet Union until 1957. The date of 2013 visible presumably was when a restoration happened.
The station made the news last week when a missile fired by Ukrainian forces (not Russian as the media falsely claimed) killed about 50 people waiting for a train. From pictures it didn't look as if the damage to the building was too severe, however, see below.

The evidence - see for example https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-61036740, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kramatorsk_railway_station_attack - is that the attack was probably Russian, not Ukrainian. You don't give any evidence for your contradiction of the mainstream media position, so it appears (unfortunately) that you've fallen for by Russian propaganda.
Wikipedia is no better or worse than any other source for non-contentious subjects, but on controversial subjects, nothing it says should be accepted at face value. It looks like you've (unfortunately) fallen for Zelensky propaganda.
