• Kagoshima Main Line: Higo-Ikura ⇄ Tabarazaka

Konoha opened on 1 April 1892 as an addition by the privately run Kyushu Railway on the Takase (now Tamana)–Kumamoto stretch. The state took over with the 1 July 1907 nationalisation; the route through the station was placed on the Hitoyoshi Main Line on 12 October 1909 and then on the Kagoshima Main Line on 21 November 1909. Freight handling ended on 1 October 1961, the station became unstaffed on 1 November 1986, and JR Kyushu took over on 1 April 1987. The station building burnt down in an arson attack on 18 March 1997; a temporary prefab structure was used until the current building, integrated with the town's "Konoha Exchange Salon" community facility, opened in April 2008.

After the wooden station was burnt down by arson in March 1997, passengers used a 2-tatami-mat prefab hut for over a decade — the current building, opened in 2008, is built into the local community salon "Konoha".
