Kawano Station traces its origins to the Kida Signal Box, opened on 1 July 1928 on the Kansai Main Line of the Japanese Government Railways. It was promoted to a full passenger station on 1 March 1949 under the name Suzuka Station, but the location proved poorly suited to serve the growing city of Suzuka, sitting on a narrow strip beside the Suzuka River and roughly forty-five minutes on foot from city hall. Parcel handling ended and the station lost its staff on 1 October 1970. When a new Suzuka Station opened on the Ise Line in 1973, the old facility was renamed Kawano on 10 July 1973 after the historical Kawano village. The station passed to JR Central at privatisation on 1 April 1987, and was assigned station number CJ14 in March 2018.

After the station building was demolished in early 1986, the railway placed a converted Yo-5000-class freight caboose on the down platform to serve as a waiting room; the makeshift shelter remained in use until it was finally removed around 2008.
