Kuraishi Village was founded on April 1, 1889.

On July 1, 2004, Kuraishi was merged into the expanded town of Gonohe, and thus no longer exists as an independent municipality.

An inland village, Kuraishi had an agriculture-based economy and was noted for its production of apples. At the time of its merger, Kuraishi had an estimated population of 3,363 and a population density of 60.4 persons per km². The total area was 55.68 km².

Kuraishi was served by Route 454 (Japan) highway, but had no rail service.
