Suzurandai

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

Suzurandai Station opened as "Obe" Station on 28 November 1928, when Kobe Arima Electric Railway opened its line between Minatogawa and Dentetsu-Arima (now Arima Onsen). It was renamed "Suzurandai" Station on 1 August 1932, the name evoking the delicate lily-of-the-valley (suzuran) flowers that bloom on the highland there. The Miki Electric Railway section between this station and Hirono Golf-jō-mae (now the Ao Line) opened on 28 December 1936; the station became one of Shin'yū Miki Electric Railway through the merger of 9 January 1947, of Kobe Electric Railway (Kōbe Denki Tetsudō) through the company-name change of 30 April 1949, and of Kobe Electric Railway (Kōbe Dentetsu) through the company-name change of 1 April 1988. An elevator connecting the platforms with the underpass was installed on 26 March 2011, and a south ticket gate was also newly added. On 25 September 2018 a bridge-type station building spanning the tracks came into use, joined to the "Belst Suzurandai" station building that houses the Kita Ward Office and commercial facilities, and a redevelopment project including improvements to the station plaza was completed in July 2020. Its station number is KB06.

Before the war, the Suzurandai area flourished as a summer resort with dance halls and beer halls, and was celebrated as the "Karuizawa of Kansai."
