History

Echizen-Ōmiya Station opened on 15 December 1960 as part of the Japanese National Railways Etsumi-Hoku Line, on the section between Echizen-Hanandō and Kadohara. The station was unattended from the start and served as a simple stop in the Ōmiya district of what is now Fukui City. On 1 April 1987 it came under the control of JR West with the privatisation of JNR. After torrential rain on 18 July 2004 suspended the entire line, services on the Miyama–Echizen-Ōno section resumed on 11 September 2004, with replacement buses calling at the Keifuku Bus Ōmiya stop until then. The station retains a single side platform with only a shelter, located 22.2 km from Echizen-Hanandō.
