History

Takehana Station opened on 25 June 1921 as Takehana Station of the Takehana Railway, in what is today the city of Hashima, Gifu Prefecture. On 19 February 1929 it was renamed Sakaemachi Station, then on 1 March 1943 it was absorbed into the Meitetsu network when the Takehana Railway was merged, and on 1 January 1951 it was renamed Takehana again. Freight handling ended in fiscal 1965. With the Hashima Line opening on 11 December 1982 it became an express stop, though express operations on the line ceased in the 2001 reorganisation. The station was de-staffed on 20 November 2007. Today it has a single side platform serving a bi-directional track and was chosen in the second round of the "Top 100 Stations of Chūbu."
