History

The station opened in 1897 as a station on the Kansai Railway, which connected Osaka and Nagoya via Nara. The Kansai Railway was nationalized in 1907 and became the Kansai Main Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR West.
