[1] Several shops and restaurants serving transferring passengers are located inside the station.

The station opened on 10 March 1910, as a stop on the Minoo-Arima Railway (today's Takarazuka Line).

In 1921, the North Osaka Electric Railway began service between Juso and Senriyama; this line was acquired by the Keihan Electric Railway and was extended from Awaji Station to both Kyoto and central Osaka.

Keihan and Hankyu merged in 1943, bringing all of Juso's lines under common ownership.

While Keihan was again spun off as a separate company in 1949, Hankyu retained the Juso-Kyoto and Senriyama lines.
