Location
History
Atsuta Jingu Temma-cho Station is an underground stop on the Nagoya Municipal Subway's Meijō Line, in Atsuta-ku, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, located 23.4 kilometres from the line's terminus at Kanayama and providing access to the main southern gate of Atsuta Shrine. It opened on 30 March 1974 as Temma-cho Station with the launch of the original Line 4. The line was renamed the Meijō Line on 6 October 2004, platform screen doors entered service on 1 March 2021, and on 4 January 2023 the station was renamed Atsuta Jingu Temma-cho to emphasise its role as the shrine's closest stop. Two opposed underground side platforms form the station, identified as M26.
Notes
On the four-station renaming wave of 4 January 2023, Temma-cho was the only one chosen via direct local-resident petition; the alternative discussed in 2019 was rejected on the grounds that the old name had already settled into civic use.
