Sakae (Aichi)

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Sakae Station opened on 15 November 1957 as Sakaemachi Station, the terminus of the Nagoya Municipal Subway's No. 1 Line (later renamed the Higashiyama Line); the new underground line replaced the surface trams that had previously run above it. On 15 June 1960 it became a through station with the extension to Ikeshita. The No. 2 Line (later the Meijō Line) reached the station on 15 October 1965, creating an interchange, and the station was renamed Sakae on 1 June 1966. Platform-screen doors were activated on the Higashiyama Line in November 2015 and on the Meijō Line in August 2020.

On 16 August 1983 a fire broke out in a substation inside Sakae Station and burned for more than three hours, killing two firefighters and halting trains.
