• Toyohashi Railroad Atsumi Line: Kambe

The station opened on 10 June 1924 as Tahara Station (田原駅) on the privately held Atsumi Railroad, and was renamed Mikawa-Tahara on 1 June 1925. The line was extended beyond the station to Kurokawahara on 10 April 1926, making the station an intermediate stop, but that section was suspended on 5 June 1944 with rails removed for wartime salvage, restoring Mikawa-Tahara to its terminal role. The Atsumi Railroad merged into Nagoya Railroad on 1 September 1940 and the route was transferred to Toyohashi Railroad on 1 October 1954. The current fourth-generation station building, designed by Tadao Andō Architect & Associates, opened on 27 October 2013, and the platform layout was expanded the following September.

Mikawa-Tahara is the southernmost railway station in the Chūbu region and in Aichi Prefecture. The current station building, designed by Tadao Andō, replaced an older one that stood along the north side of the tracks and still showed where the line had once continued toward Kurokawahara.
