History

Mondo-Yakujin Station opened on 2 September 1921, when the Hanshin Express Railway (later Hankyu) put its Saihō Line between Takarazuka and Nishinomiya-Kitaguchi into service. The line was renamed the Imazu Line on 18 December 1926. A connecting underpass between platforms was completed in 1979. The line was knocked out by the 17 January 1995 Great Hanshin earthquake; single-track running between Mondo-Yakujin and Nishinomiya-Kitaguchi resumed on 23 January, with full reopening of the Imazu Line on 5 February. Hankyu's system-wide station numbering took effect on 21 December 2013 with this stop designated HK-23. From 1 April 2023 the staffed ticket counter operates only between 07:00 and 22:00.

Notes

During the 1995 earthquake the Route 171 "Mondo Bridge" road overpass collapsed onto the tracks beside the station, and the parallel Sanyo Shinkansen viaduct between Mondo-Yakujin and Kōtōen also fell, blocking the line until rebuilt that February.
