History

Nakakawabe Station opened on 25 November 1922 with the extension of the Takayama Line (renamed Takayama Main Line in 1934) from Mino-Ōta to Shimoasō, in what is now Nakakawabe, Kawabe, Kamo District, Gifu Prefecture. Freight handling was withdrawn on 20 April 1973 and parcel duties on 1 February 1984. The station was made unstaffed on 1 April 1985, though for a time afterwards tickets were still issued via a Mino-Ōta dispatched-staff arrangement. With the 1 April 1987 breakup of JNR it became a JR Central stop, and a new waiting shelter entered service on 10 January 2015. The station sits 34.1 km from the line's official origin at Gifu, has two opposed ground-level platforms linked by a footbridge, and has high-speed-through Y-point turnouts rated for 110 km/h passage.
