Location
History
Kudoyama Station opened on 25 December 1924 as the new terminus of a Nankai Railway extension from Kamuro. On 30 July 1925 the line was pushed further to what is now Kōyashita, leaving Kudoyama an intermediate stop. The station passed to Kintetsu under the 1944 wartime merger and to Nankai Electric Railway when the line was returned in 1947. In 2009 Kudoyama was designated a Modern Industrial Heritage site as part of the Kōyasan pilgrimage group, and on 1 April 2013 it became unstaffed. The rice-ball stand "Kudo" opened at the station on 2 November 2019.
Notes
Under the "Kōya Flower Railway" project, the station was redecorated in 2009 with planters featuring Sanada Yukimura and his Ten Braves, and ahead of the 2016 NHK drama "Sanada Maru" the station building was draped with Sanada six-coin family-crest banners and noren.
