Location
History
Takeda Station (K15 / B05) is in Takeda Okenoi-chō, Fushimi-ku, Kyoto, jointly served by the Kyoto Municipal Subway Karasuma Line (of which it is the southern terminus) and the Kintetsu Kyoto Line. It opened on 15 November 1928 as Jōnangū-mae Station on the Nara Electric Railway, about 350 m south of the present site, was renamed Naraden-Takeda Station on 5 April 1940 and then Takeda Station upon Nara Electric's merger with Kintetsu on 1 October 1963. The current elevated site was opened on 9 July 1987, and joint subway-Kintetsu operation followed on 11 June 1988 when the Karasuma Line was extended south to Takeda; through-running services between the two lines began on 28 August 1988. PiTaPa service started on 1 April 2007 and the south gate was unstaffed on 1 April 2023.
Notes
Takeda is the only above-ground station on the entire Kyoto Municipal Subway, and the surrounding stretch of the Karasuma Line is the only above-ground section of the whole subway network; the station had been Kintetsu's alone until the Karasuma Line was extended to it on 11 June 1988 and the two operators began sharing it.
