History
The station was opened by the privately run Kyushu Railway on 15 November 1890 as the northern terminus of a stretch of track from Template:STN. It became a through-station on 28 February 1891 when the track was extended further north to Template:STN. When the Kyushu Railway was nationalized on 1 July 1907, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station. On 12 October 1909, the station became part of the Hitoyoshi Main Line and then on 21 November 1909, part of the Kagoshima Main Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, JR Kyushu took over control of the station.[3][4] On 30 August 2017, the station building was destroyed in a fire which spread from a food-retail tenant. A new station building was completed on 31 July 2021.
