History
Ise-Ishibashi opened on 19 November 1930 as Sangū-Ishibashi Station on the Sangū Express Electric Railway between Sada (now Sakakibara-Onsenguchi) and Sangū-Nakagawa (now Ise-Nakagawa). The line was absorbed by Kansai Express Railway through merger with Osaka Electric Tramway on 15 March 1941, when the station took its present name. Kintetsu took over on 1 June 1944. The line either side of the station was double-tracked in 1974, and the station was made fully unstaffed in 2002 with its station building removed. PiTaPa acceptance through simplified gates began in April 2007.

Notes
Despite serving a city of 270,000, Ise-Ishibashi typically sees fewer than 50 riders per day, making it one of the quietest stops on the entire Kintetsu Osaka Line.
