History

The station opened on 20 December 1912 as Terai Station (寺井駅).[1] With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR West.[1] The station name was changed to its present name on 14 March 2015.[2] The name was changed to provide a closer association with the city of Nomi, as it is the only station in the city.[3]
