History
Tsubosakayama Station is a Kintetsu Yoshino Line stop in Takatori, Nara Prefecture, located 3.9 kilometres from the line's start at Kashiharajingū-mae and 43.6 kilometres from Ōsaka Abenobashi. It opened on 5 December 1923 on the Yoshino Railway. The Osaka Electric Tramway absorbed the Yoshino Railway on 1 August 1929, and on 15 March 1941 the line was folded into the Kansai Express Railway. A wartime merger with Nankai Electric Railway on 1 June 1944 created Kintetsu, which has operated the station ever since. It was promoted to a Limited Express stop on 15 March 1990, gained PiTaPa support on 1 April 2007, and was converted to all-day unstaffed operation at an unspecified date in October 2021.

Notes
The station's platform 3 is a dead-end stub on the Yoshino side, used solely to turn back trains heading toward Kashihara-Jingū-mae, while the other two tracks continue through to Yoshino.
