Location

History

The present Kasumigaura Station traces its origin to Hazu Station, which opened on 30 January 1929 on the Ise Electric Railway. A separate, originally provisional Kasumigaura Station opened on 5 July 1929 some 500 metres towards Nagoya and was made permanent in 1931. Successive mergers transferred both stops in turn to Sangū Express Electric Railway (1936), the Kansai Express Railway (1941, when the route was renamed the Nagoya Line) and Kintetsu (1944). The provisional Kasumigaura Station was closed on 22 October 1943 and Hazu was relocated to its present site. On 5 June 1950 Hazu was renamed Kasumigaura. PiTaPa acceptance began on 1 April 2007. The station is station E18, 33.5 km from Kintetsu Nagoya.

Notes

Between the present station and Akuragawa the line runs through two concrete tunnels whose upper surface preserves the remains of Hazu Castle; the original Hazu Station stood near those tunnels, and the line was cut through the castle mount itself.
