Ujiyamada Station opened on 17 March 1931 as the new gateway to Ise Grand Shrine when Sangū Express Electric Railway — the predecessor of today's Kintetsu Osaka and Yamada Lines — completed its through route from Osaka. Because construction of this station ran late, the neighbouring government-run Yamada Station (now Iseshi) had served as a provisional terminus for three months. Five days after the opening, the station hosted the ceremony marking completion of the through route together with the 20th-anniversary celebration of the parent company, Ōsaka Electric Tramway. The grand elevated terminus drew admiring notice that "in Ise even the electric trains arrive in heaven." The station is the junction of the Yamada Line, 28.3 kilometers from Ise-Nakagawa, and the Toba Line, which begins here. A stationmaster is posted here, and the station houses an Imperial reception room used by the Emperor and Prime Minister on their pilgrimages to the Ise Shrines.

An Imperial reception room used by members of the imperial family and by the Prime Minister sits on the second floor of the station building, alongside the ticket gates. Separately, the rooftop tower at the building's southern end originally doubled as a fire watch tower, and from 1936 to 1968 Ise's fire headquarters was housed at the station.
