History

Chōkoku-no-Mori Station opened on 1919-06-01 as Ni-no-Taira Station, taking the name of the surrounding hamlet on the Hakone Tozan Line. It was renamed Chōkoku-no-Mori on 1972-03-15 when the adjacent Hakone Open-Air Museum opened; the museum's modern-sculpture collection now lends the station its name. Operation passed to Odakyu Hakone on 2024-04-01 as part of an Odakyu Group restructure. The two opposed platforms originally hosted regular train crossings, but a 2006 timetable rework with the Gōra rebuild has since restricted scheduled use to the single station-side platform.

Notes

Station was renamed in 1972 to match the newly opened Hakone Open-Air Museum next door, swapping a hamlet name for a tourist marker.
