History

Japanese Government Railways (JGR) opened the station on 14 December 1939 as an intermediate station when the track of the Mugi Line was extended from Awa-Fukui to Hiwasa. On 1 April 1987, with the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, JR Shikoku took over control of the station.[6][7]

gollark: I mean, they work for the sort of user who doesn't really care, but I would definitely not like to swap out my nice Arch install for a locked-down iOS thing.
gollark: I think they can actually manage x86-class single-thread performance at least briefly now.
