History
Nakamozu Station opened on 10 October 1912 on the Kōya Tozan Railway (today's Nankai Kōya Line) between Mozuhachiman and Nishimura (today's Hatsushiba). Double-tracking on 22 June 1928 produced the original two-platform layout. Ownership passed via Ōsaka Kōya Railway, Nankai Railway and the wartime Kinki Nippon Railway merger to Nankai Electric Railway on 1 June 1947. The station was moved 170 m toward Mozuhachiman and rebuilt as a two-island, four-track overpass-style station in November 1970, and gained a Senboku Rapid Railway connection on 1 April 1971. Osaka Municipal Subway's Midōsuji Line reached its underground southern terminus here on 18 April 1987; that operation was inherited by Osaka Metro on 1 April 2018. The Semboku Line was absorbed into Nankai on 1 April 2025, eliminating the former joint-station arrangement.
