Japanese Government Railways opened the station on 1 July 1923 as an additional station on the existing track of its then Hōshū Main Line, which was later renamed the Nippō Main Line on 15 December 1923. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Kyushu.[5][6]
During the 2015 fiscal year, there was a total of 15,497 boarding passengers, giving a daily average of 42 passengers.[7]
