History

The station opened on April 1, 1938, as Tsūshin-Gakkō Station (通信学校駅), named after the nearby Army Telecommunication School (Rikugun Tsūshin-Gakkō). It was renamed Sagami-Ono on January 1, 1941, as part of the counter-intelligence movement to eliminate the names of military facilities from maps.[1] Work began on the new station complex from September 1, 1996.
