History
Bishamon Station opened on July 15, 1931 on the privately operated Tsugaru Railway Line, serving farmland in present-day Goshogawara, 7.4 kilometres from the line terminus. The stop was closed on August 1, 1941 during wartime service reductions and stood disused until reopening on May 20, 1955. It has remained an unattended single-platform halt operated by the Tsugaru Railway Company; some trains pass through without stopping.

Notes
The waiting shelter at Bishamon was rebuilt in 2013 by local volunteers using bare timber, replacing the previous structure entirely with a community-funded design.
