The station began to serve two lines when the Ibusuki Makurazaki Line of Japanese National Railways (JNR) was extended from Nishi-Ei to Makurazaki on October 31, 1963.

The operation of the Makurazaki Line was suspended on June 21, 1983, due to a flood.

Unveiled on April 28, 2013, the new building received the Good Design Award in the same year.
