Location
History
Imadegawa Station opened on 29 May 1981 with the initial Kitaōji–Kyōto section of the Kyoto Municipal Subway Karasuma Line, in Kamigyō Ward, Kyōto. It sits beneath the Karasuma-Imadegawa intersection, with a single underground island platform serving two tracks. IC card travel using PiTaPa began on 1 April 2007, and from April 2010 the station name signage carried a paid subtitle pointing to nearby Dōshisha University. A direct underground passage to Dōshisha's Ryōshinkan building was opened on 9 November 2012, and the south ticket gate became unstaffed on 1 April 2023.
Notes
The area west of the station was the site of the Muromachi shogunate's Hana no Gosho palace in the Muromachi period, and the diviner Abe no Seimei's residence stood nearby in the Heian period.
