Tsurumai Station opened on 6 September 1928 as a temporary stop named Tsurumai-Kōen ("Tsurumai Park") Station on the Japanese Government Railways' Chūō Main Line, established to serve a Nagoya enthronement-commemoration exhibition held in the adjacent park, and was closed on 1 December the same year. Local petitioning by Tsurumai Park merchants and residents — who donated about 800 square metres of land and contributed roughly ¥23,000 toward construction — led to the station's permanent revival as Tsurumai Station on 21 April 1937. Parcel handling ended on 25 January 1962, when the Kanayama – Chikusa section through the station was elevated, and that section was double-tracked on 27 September the same year. The station passed to JR Central at the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987, became a rapid-train stop in October 1997, and gained TOICA IC-card service on 25 November 2006. The underground Nagoya Municipal Subway Tsurumai Line station opened on 18 March 1977 and added platform-screen doors on 7 July 2025. The JR station received the number CF02 when station numbering was introduced there in March 2018; the subway station is numbered T10.

JR Tsurumai Station's 2017 fiscal-year daily ridership was 19,892 (boarding only); the Nagoya Subway portion averaged 14,234 boarding passengers daily in the same period.
