History

Minami-Anjō Station opened on 1 July 1926 with the Hekikai Electric Railway, with its station building originally on the east side of the tracks. From 25 December 1939 the station was the southern end of a freight branch running to Anjō Station on the national railway (later the Meitetsu Anjō Branch Line); passenger trains used the branch from 21 March 1951 until its closure on 30 July 1961. Hekikai Electric was absorbed into Meitetsu on 1 May 1944, and the station building was relocated to the west side in 1961 to interchange with the bus replacing the closed branch. The track was elevated on 1 May 1981 — the first elevated station on the Nishio Line — and platforms were lengthened from four to six cars. Automatic ticket gates arrived in May 1987, the station was de-staffed on 11 October 2007, and lifts and other barrier-free work followed in fiscal 2018.
