History
Fujimatsu Station is a Meitetsu Nagoya Main Line station in Kariya, Aichi Prefecture, located 46.6 kilometres from the line's terminus at Toyohashi. It opened on 1 April 1923 as Imagawa Station on the Aichi Electric Railway, taking its name from the surrounding district. The Aichi Electric Railway merged into the Nagoya Railroad (Meitetsu) in 1935. The station was renamed Fujimatsu on 1 March 1952 after the village name Fuji-matsumura. A new north-side station building was completed in 1982, the Tranpass IC system was introduced in September 2004 (when the station also became unstaffed), and the present manaca system replaced it in 2011. A south-side building, roof extension and barrier-free works were completed in March 2014.

Notes
Early plans called for Fujimatsu to be expanded into a major passing station, but local opposition redirected those passing tracks to neighbouring Ano (now Toyoake) Station.
