History

Mikawa-Kamigō Station opened on April 26, 1976 as a passenger station on the Japan National Railways Okata Line between Okazaki and Shin-Toyota, originally with a single side platform and no station staff. With the privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987 it briefly came under JR-Central before being transferred to the third-sector Aichi Loop Railway on January 31, 1988. The station was re-staffed on March 1, 1999, and the Toyota-Kitano Masuzuka segment was double-tracked on December 23, 2001, with the station gaining a second platform. TOICA IC-card support began on March 2, 2019.
