History
Kuzu Station opened on 5 December 1923 on the Yoshino Railway between Yoshinoguchi and the first-generation Kashiharajingū-mae. The Yoshino Railway was absorbed by the Osaka Electric Tramway in August 1929, which merged into the wartime Kansai Kyūkō Railway on 15 March 1941; a further consolidation produced today's Kintetsu Railway on 1 June 1944, after which the line became the Kintetsu Yoshino Line. PiTaPa was introduced on 1 April 2007, and the station has been unstaffed all day since 1 October 2011. The platform serves both directions from a single track, and the small original building, on the Kashihara side of the platform, remains in use.

Notes
The neighbouring Yoshinoguchi Station carried the same name "Kuzu Station" between 1896 and 1903 under the predecessor Nanwa Railway; the two stops have never used the name simultaneously.
