Meganebashi opened on 25 December 1920 as Nigiwaibashi on the Tsuki-machi – Furumachi section of the Nagasaki Electric Tramway, a Hotarujaya Branch Line stop. The original name referred to the Nigiwai Bridge over the Nakajima River — the tracks themselves cross the river on a tram-only structure, the Nakajima-gawa Bridge. The platforms were relocated toward Kōkaidō-mae on 30 April 1954, the platform for the Shōkakuji-shita and Ishibashi directions was widened and lengthened in February 2000, and the Hotarujaya-direction platform was rebuilt in March 2006. On 1 August 2018 the stop was renamed Meganebashi to reflect the visitor draw of the nearby Megane-bashi (Spectacles Bridge). It is stop number 37.

In 2003 the tramway opened the Nigiwai-machi substation near the stop, a brick building whose Western, church-like exterior houses the replacement for the ageing Dejima substation.
