History

Tanimachi Rokuchome Station opened on 17 December 1968 as part of the Osaka Municipal Subway Line 2 (now the Tanimachi Line) extension from Tanimachi 4-chome to Tennoji. It became an interchange on 11 December 1996 when the Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi Line was extended from Kyobashi to Shinsaibashi. Platform-edge doors were installed on the Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi platform in October 2010, with elevator and escalator links between the two lines completed in August 2011. The station passed to Osaka Metro on 1 April 2018, and Tanimachi Line platform doors entered service on 16 February 2025.

Notes

Locals know the station as "Tani Roku"; the Nagahori Tsurumi-ryokuchi platform takes "temples and shrines" as its design theme, reflecting the temples and shrines dotted around the station, and is finished with stone paving and Japanese-style architectural motifs.
