Toyama Station opened on 1899-03-20 in what was then Sakuradani Village, when the government-built Hokuriku Line was extended from Takaoka. To avoid flood risk from the planned realignment of the Jinzu River, it was relocated to its present site on 1908-11-16 -- the same day the Toyama Line section onward to Uozu opened. The 1909 line-naming reform placed it on the Hokuriku Main Line. The station building was destroyed in the 1945-08-01 Toyama air raid; a permanent replacement was completed in 1952. JR West took over at privatisation on 1987-04-01, and on 2015-03-14 the conventional Hokuriku Main Line section through Toyama was transferred to the Ainokaze Toyama Railway with the Shinkansen extension to Kanazawa.

On 1908-11-16, the same day Toyama Station moved to its present location, the local food maker Minamoto was licensed as the station concessionaire and began the ekiben service that the company still operates today.
