Sangane Station opened on 20 March 1967 between Gamagōri and Kōda on the Japanese National Railways' Tōkaidō Main Line, after more than seventeen years of petitioning by residents of Fukōzu in what is now the town of Kōta, Aichi. The station stands in Fukōzu, but because the place-name was considered difficult to read it was named instead after nearby Mount Sangane, to which it was intended to serve as the gateway. Local communities bore the full 84,373,326 yen construction cost as a petition (seigan) station. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR Central, and the TOICA IC-card system began on 25 November 2006. The ticket window closed on 30 September 2017 and the station became permanently unstaffed the following day, served instead by JR Central's centralised customer support system. Station numbering CA49 was introduced in March 2018.

Although the station was named for the gateway it would provide to Mount Sangane, the Sangane ropeway closed in 1976 and the Meitetsu Bus link soon after, so today it functions only as a Tōkaidō Main Line commuter stop and not as a tourist gateway. The station building's east plaza holds a stone monument that records the long petition campaign that led to its opening.
