History edit

Shimobe-onsen Station was opened on December 17, 1927, as a Shimobe Station (下部駅, Shimobe-eki) on the original Fuji-Minobu Line. The line came under control of the Japanese Government Railways on May 1, 1941. The JGR became the JNR (Japan National Railway) after World War II. Along with the division and privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control and operation of the Central Japan Railway Company. The station was renamed to its present name on December 14, 1991.
