Sanno (Fukui)

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

Sannō Station opened on 11 February 1914 in what is now the town of Eiheiji, Yoshida District, Fukui Prefecture, when the Kyoto Dentō Echizen Electric Railway built its line between Shin-Fukui and Ichi-Arakawa (today's Echizen-Takehara). It became a Keifuku Electric Railroad Echizen Line station when that company was created in 1942. The station was unstaffed in January 1993 and was closed along with the rest of the network after the head-on collision of 24 June 2001. On 1 February 2003 the line was transferred to Echizen Railway, and Sannō reopened on 19 October 2003 when service resumed between Eiheijiguchi and Katsuyama. A snow shelter was added at the Fukui-end turnout in April 2004.

The bus stop in front of Sannō Station is served both by the Eiheiji town community bus on its Kamishihi loop route and by a separate route running to Fukui University Hospital.
