History

Kintetsu Shinjō Station opened on 9 December 1930 as Minamiwa Shinjōchō Station on the Nanwa Electric Railway. After the line was absorbed by Kansai Express Railway on 1 April 1944 it was renamed Kankyū Shinjō; two months later, on 1 June 1944, the wartime merger that created the Kinki Nippon Railway brought it the name Kinki Nippon Shinjō. It received its current name, Kintetsu Shinjō, on 1 March 1970. The station serves the Gose Line at 2.4 kilometers from the line's origin at Shakudo, and although Katsuragi City's representative JR station is the neighbouring Yamato-Shinjō, JTB's timetables designate this Kintetsu station as the city's representative stop. It was destaffed entirely on 21 December 2012.
