History

The station opened on 28 October 1934 as the terminus of the then Kōchi Line which had been extended northwards from Ōsugi. At this time the station was operated by Japanese Government Railways, later becoming Japanese National Railways (JNR). With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Shikoku.[3][6]

Surrounding area

National Route 32 - runs parallel to the tracks on the other side of the station building. It is possible to access the station platforms and building from here as there is an entrance to the footbridge.
National Route 439 - crosses the track and forms a junction with National Route 32 just southwest of the station.
