Tobu-Utsunomiya Station opened on 11 August 1931 as the northern terminus of Tobu Railway's Utsunomiya Line, built on the former site of Utsunomiya Prison. The original station building was destroyed in the firebombing of 12 July 1945. A combined Tobu Department Store and station building opened on 28 November 1959 and was expanded in March 1973. Tobu Railway introduced its first departure-bell melody here on 21 August 1991. PASMO integrated-circuit ticketing began on 18 March 2007, and on 17 March 2012 the station received its present line-network code, TN-40.

When Tobu Railway introduced station-departure bell melodies in 1991, Tobu-Utsunomiya was the very first stop on the network to play one.
