History
Mino-Yanagi Station opened on 1 June 1934 as a new stop on the Ise Electric Railway's Yōrō Line, between Tomoe and Nishi-Ōgaki, in Ōgaki, Gifu Prefecture. Ownership passed in succession to the Yōrō Electric Railway in May 1936, the Sangū Express Railway in August 1940, the Kansai Express Railway in March 1941 and Kinki Nippon Railway in June 1944. On 1 October 2007 the line was spun off from Kintetsu, and the station became part of the new Yōrō Railway. The unstaffed station has one side platform serving a single bi-directional track. Freight sidings to the neighbouring Ibiden plant once ran here but ceased use around 1970.

Notes
Vestiges of a freight siding to the adjacent Ibiden plant remained visible on retaining walls and gateposts into the early 2000s; the last surviving gate was demolished around 2020.
