• Fukuoka City Subway Kuko Line: Tojinmachi ⇄ Fujisaki (Fukuoka)

Nishijin Station opened on 26 July 1981 with the inaugural section of the Fukuoka City Subway, replacing the Nishitetsu Fukuoka Inner-city Line tram stop of the same name that had closed in 1975. A turnback siding immediately west of the platform housed a temporary inspection pit between July 1980 and March 1983, used for train inspections while the connecting tracks to the Meinohama depot were still unfinished. The station was outsourced to a contractor and moved from the Meinohama managed area to the Tenjin managed area on 1 April 2019. An island platform on two tracks underpins the Meiji-dōri Nishijin intersection; the station code is K04.

On 30 January 2015 a ceramic Sazae-san panel, made in the local Takatori ware, was installed inside the station.
