History

Kaminogō Station opened on July 23, 1929 as Shima-Isobe Station (志摩磯部駅, Shima-Isobe eki) on the Shima Electric Railway. The line was one of six private companies consolidated into Mie Kotsu by order of the Japanese government on February 11, 1944. When Mie Kotsu dissolved on February 1, 1964, the station became part of the Mie Electric Railway, which was then acquired by Kintetsu on April 1, 1965. The station was renamed to its present name on March 1, 1970.
