History

The station opened on November 3, 1912 as the terminus of the original Keisei Railway from what is now Edogawa station on the Main Line. On December 1, 1960, it was replaced by a new station underground in preparation for through services to Toei Line 1, which opened three days later. (Line 1 was christened the Asakusa Line on July 1, 1978.) In 1989, a passageaway opened to Narihirabashi Station, but this was closed when the Eidan/Tobu platforms opened on March 19, 2003.
