Ishinden Station opened on 21 August 1891 as the terminus of the Kansai Railway's privately built Tsu spur, becoming an intermediate stop on 4 November the same year when the line was extended to Tsu Station. Nationalisation on 1 October 1907 brought it under the Imperial Railway Agency, and the line was reclassified as part of the Sangū Line in 1909. The current wooden station building dates from December 1923. The route was reclassified again on 15 July 1959 as part of the Kisei Main Line, and the station passed to JR Central with the 1987 JNR breakup. It has been unstaffed since 1 October 2011.

Locals pronounce the place-name "Isshinden" rather than "Ishinden" — the reading also used in the ruby text of the Railway Song's fifth volume, "Kansai, Sangū and Nankai".
