History

Ōmura Station opened on 20 January 1898 as the southern terminus of the Kyushu Railway's then-Nagasaki Line extension from Haiki. It became a through-station on 27 November 1898 when the line was further extended to Isahaya and on towards Nagayo. Following nationalisation of the Kyushu Railway on 1 July 1907 it became a station of the Imperial Government Railways, and on 12 October 1909 the Tosu - Haiki - Nagasaki route was formally designated the Nagasaki Main Line. The wooden station building still in use today was rebuilt in August 1918 because of termite damage. On 1 December 1934 the route from Haiki - Ōmura - Isahaya was redesignated the Ōmura Line after a new Nagasaki Main Line was opened via the Ariake Sea coast. The station passed to JNR on 1 June 1949, to JR Kyushu on 1 April 1987, and SUGOCA service began on 1 December 2012. On 1 October 2023 the outsourcing arrangement with JR Kyushu Service Support ended and the station became directly JR Kyushu-operated. The Midori-no-madoguchi reservation counter was closed on 31 March 2025.

Notes

On 25 May 1949 Emperor Shōwa boarded an imperial train from Ōmura Station as part of his post-war national tour, with a public welcome ceremony held in the station forecourt. The wooden station building also houses community-FM broadcaster FM Ōmura (76.3 MHz), which opened inside the building on 14 March 2010.
