Ninokuchi Station opened on 21 March 1923 as a stop on the Osaka Electric Tramway Unebi Line — today's Kintetsu Kashihara Line — in what is now Kashihara, Nara Prefecture. The line merged with the Sangū Express Railway on 15 March 1941, transferring the station to the Kansai Express Railway, and a further company merger on 1 June 1944 brought it under Kintetsu. A connecting track to the Osaka Line at Yamato-Yagi was completed on 20 December 1967, allowing through running of Kyoto–Ise limited expresses. The underground station building was finished on 29 April 2003, and PiTaPa support began on 1 April 2007.

Despite being served only by local trains, Ninokuchi anchors the Ninokuchi connecting line, which leaves the Kashihara Line just south of the station and runs to the Osaka Line platforms at Yamato-Yagi, carrying the Kintetsu limited expresses that run through between Kyoto and Kashikojima.
