Template:BS-map Ōsaka Uehommachi Station (大阪上本町駅, Ōsaka Uehonmachi-eki) is a railway station in Tennoji-ku, Osaka, Japan, served by Kintetsu Railway's Osaka Line, Nara Line, and Namba Line. Trains of the Nara Line arrive at an underground platform and depart there. The station connects to Tanimachi Kyuchome Station on the Tanimachi Line (T25) and the Sennichimae Line (S18) of Osaka Municipal Subway. It is the terminal of Kintetsu since the Nara Line was opened in 1914.

The station is also called Ueroku Station (上六駅, Ueroku-eki) since it is located in Uehommachi Rokuchōme, or Ueroku in short, which is currently used as the name for the connecting bus stops. The station was renamed from Uehommachi Station (上本町駅) on March 20, 2009, when Hanshin Namba Line started serving it.[2]
