Kuwana Station opened on 24 May 1895 on the Kansai Railway, replacing a temporary station that had been operating since 5 July 1894. The Kansai Railway was nationalised on 1 October 1907 and the station became part of the Japanese Government Railway network. Yōrō Railway service began on 27 April 1919, and the Ise Electric Railway, predecessor of today’s Kintetsu Nagoya Line, reached Kuwana on 30 January 1929. Scheduled freight operations ended in 1982. The station passed to JR Central on 1 April 1987 with privatisation, TOICA support began on 25 November 2006, and a new station building separating the JR and Kintetsu fare gates entered service on 30 August 2020. JR Central’s portion was numbered CJ07 in March 2018.

Hidden inside the station’s mix of three track gauges — 762 mm Sangi Railway Hokusei Line at adjacent Nishi-Kuwana, 1,067 mm JR Kansai Main Line, and 1,435 mm Kintetsu Nagoya Line — is a single level crossing nearby that actually traverses all three gauges in quick succession.
