History
The station was opened by the Karatsu Kogyo Railway on 13 June 1899 as an additional station on a stretch of track which it had laid in 1898 from Miyoken (now Nishi-Karatsu) to Yamamoto. On 23 February 1902, the company, now renamed the Karatsu Railway, merged with the Kyushu Railway. When the Kyushu Railway was nationalized on 1 July 1907, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station. On 12 October 1909, the line which served the station was designated the Karatsu Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Kyushu.[4][5]
