History
Jūjō Station (B03) is on the Kintetsu Kyoto Line in Nishi-Kujō Yanaginōchi-chō, Minami-ku, Kyoto, 1.5 km from the line's terminus at Kyoto. It opened on 15 November 1928 with the Nara Electric Railway between Kyoto and Momoyama-goryō-mae, and became a Kintetsu station on 1 October 1963 when the Nara Electric Railway merged with Kintetsu. The down-line tracks were elevated on 3 October 1998 as part of the Takeda–Tōji continuous-grade-separation works, the up line followed on 27 November 1999, and PiTaPa IC service began on 1 April 2007. The platform is an elevated six-car island, the concourse and ticket gates are on the first floor and the platform is on the second.

Notes
In 1974 the station's signage was a free-for-all: the entrance sign read "十條駅" using an old-form character, while of six platform name boards four read "十条駅" and two used yet a third form of the character; the romanisation also flipped between "JUJO" and "JYUJYO" depending on which sign you looked at.
