History
The JR Ōwani-Onsen Station was opened on October 21, 1898 as Ōwani Station (大鰐駅, Ōwani-eki) on the Japanese government railways, the predecessor to the Japan National Railways (JNR). An overpass connecting the platforms was completed in 1915, and the station building in 1921. With the privatization of the JNR on April 1, 1987, it came under the operational control of JR East. On March 16, 1991, it was renamed to its present name.
The Kōnan Railway Ōwani Station was opened on January 26, 1952. On October 1, 1970 it was renamed Kōnan-Ōwani Station (大鰐駅, Kōnan-Ōwani-eki) to distinguish it from the adjacent JNR station; however, it reverted to its original name on April 1, 1986.
