History

Anoh Station was opened on April 5, 1914, as a station on the Hokusei Railway, which became the Hokusei Electric Railway on June 27, 1934. Through a series of mergers, the line became part of the Kintetsu network by April 1, 1965. The platform was extended on September 29, 1977, by two meters to its present 58 meters. The station building was pulled down on January 20, 1982. The Sangi Railway was spun out of Kintetsu as an independent company on April 1, 2003. A new station building was completed in 2005.
