The station started operations in 1941 under Japanese Government Railway management. It transitioned to East Japan Railway Company in 1987 and continues operating today.
The station building houses a staffed ticket counter called Midori no Madoguchi, where staff assist travelers daily and reflect Japanese railway service customs.
