Hirosaki Station opened on 1 December 1894 with the Aomori–Hirosaki section of the government Ōu Main Line, beginning freight handling ten days later. Track to Ikarigaseki opened in 1895, and on 7 September 1927 the private Kōnan Railway connected with its own Kōnan-Hirosaki terminus. A second station building debuted in December 1929 and a third in April 1981, with the Apprez station shopping complex opening in April 1982; the current fourth-generation building with east–west free passage opened on 12 December 2004, carrying the Tsugaru Jongara-bushi departure melody. The Kōnan Railway's Kōnan-Hirosaki Station was renamed Hirosaki Station on 1 April 1986. JR privatisation on 1 April 1987 split operations between JR East and JR Freight, and scheduled freight calls ended in October 2019.

Hirosaki leads Japan in the value of its apple shipments, and a giant apple ornament more than two metres in diameter greets passengers on the station platform — the detail cited when the station was chosen for Tōhoku's "100 Best Stations" in 2002.
