Moriyama-Jieitai-Mae Station opened on 2 April 1905 as Rentai-Mae Station on the Seto Automatic Railway (later the Seto Electric Railway), named for the nearby IJA 33rd Infantry Regiment barracks. The Seto Electric Railway was absorbed into Meitetsu on 1 September 1939, and on 10 February 1941 the station was renamed Nijakenya Station for wartime security reasons. Postwar it was renamed again to Moriyama-machi Station on 1 June 1946, to Moriyama-shi Station on 1 February 1955, and finally to its present name on 15 March 1966, following Moriyama City's 1963 merger into Nagoya. A new station building entered service on 24 March 1983, the station became unattended on 3 August 2006, and Manaca IC ticketing started on 11 February 2011.

The station has been renamed five times — Rentai-Mae (1905), Nijakenya (1941, to obscure the nearby army base), Moriyama-machi (1946), Moriyama-shi (1955), and finally Moriyama-Jieitai-Mae (1966) once Moriyama merged into Nagoya.
