The station building also includes the Nikaho City Library.

It was switched to the control of the JGR Uetsu Main Line on April 20, 1924.

The JGR became the JNR (Japan National Railway) after World War II.

With the privatization of the JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control of the East Japan Railway Company.
