Meitetsu Gifu Station traces back to two separate predecessors. The first Shin-Gifu Station opened on 26 December 1914 as part of the Mino Electric Tramway's Kasamatsu Line (now the Meitetsu Nagoya Main Line). The Kakamigahara Railway's Nagazumichō Station opened nearby on 28 December 1928. On 18 April 1948 the original Shin-Gifu Station was relocated and merged into Nagazumichō, which was renamed Shin-Gifu (second generation). Subsequent rebuilds came in 1957 and 1970, a new East Entrance was added on 27 May 1988, and a major reconstruction of the station complex finished on 2 July 1988. After an October 2003 incident in which an arriving express train overran and struck the buffer stop (the "Shin-Gifu Station collision"), the station was renamed Meitetsu Gifu on 29 January 2005. The current main station building has been in use since 14 July 2007; manaca IC-card service began 11 February 2011. From 12 April 2025 the East gate has been fully unstaffed.

The station is in fact two adjacent terminals whose tracks never meet: the elevated Nagoya Main Line platforms and the ground-level Kakamigahara Line platforms occupy separate concourses a short distance apart, joined by connecting passages both inside and outside the fare gates, so passengers can transfer between them but no through services can run between the Nagoya Main Line and the Kakamigahara Line. The canopy support columns along platforms 1 and 2, and some of those at the ticket-gate end of platforms 3 and 4, reuse vintage rail made by Carnegie in 1897, and from 18 to 25 August 2022 the nameplate was temporarily changed to "Meitetsu FC Gifu Station" in a collaboration with local football club FC Gifu.
