Kamisakaemachi Station opened on 15 August 1912 as Nagarakōen-shita on the Keishin Electric Tramway between Sanjō Ōhashi and Fudanotsuji in Ōtsu. The 1925 merger transferred it to Keihan's Keishin Line, and in 1943 wartime consolidation moved it to Keihanshin-Kyuko (today's Hankyu). The stop was closed in November 1943 amid wartime rationalisation and reopened on 1 January 1946. After Keihan's 1949 split from Hankyu it returned to Keihan ownership and was renamed Kamisakaemachi on 1 March 1959. Platforms were extended for four-car operation around 1997, and PiTaPa integration followed on 1 April 2007. The stop is unstaffed except on weekday mornings.

The station's earlier name, Nagarakōen-shita ('below Nagara Park'), still describes its setting: the stop stands at the foot of Mount Nagara, with Nagara Park a short walk uphill to the west.
