History
The station opened on 30 March 1924 when the then Kōchi Line (later renamed the Dosan Line) was constructed from Template:STN to Template:STN. 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][7]
On 4 March 2017, Sakawa town authorities opened a tourist information centre inside the station building using space offered by JR Shikoku. The centre, which is unstaffed, features a custom-built information terminal about Sakawa town, maps and brochures, educational displays as well as a model of a local historic building.[5][8]
