Asakusabashi Station opened on 1 July 1932 on the Sōbu Line in Asakusabashi, Taitō Ward, Tokyo. Toei Subway Line 1 — today's Asakusa Line — opened a station here on 4 December 1960, making this an interchange. JNR built a new east-side station building incorporating the subway connecting passage on 22 April 1963. Line 1 was rebranded as the Asakusa Line on 1 July 1978. On 29 November 1985 the station was a target of the National Railway simultaneous guerrilla incidents — a protest against JNR's pending privatisation by the Chūkaku-ha faction that included an attack on the station — and JNR services were suspended here all day, though the parallel Toei line continued normally. JR East took over on 1 April 1987 at JNR's privatisation. Suica IC cards were accepted from 18 November 2001 and PASMO on the Toei side from 18 March 2007.

During the National Railway simultaneous guerrilla incidents on 29 November 1985, the Chūkaku-ha occupied and set fire to Asakusabashi as part of a protest against JNR's privatisation, forcing the JNR side to suspend service all day; trains on the Toei Asakusa Line below ran normally.
