History
Misedani Station opened on 15 August 1925 as the terminus of the Japanese Government Railways Kisei-East Line in what is now Ōdai, Mie Prefecture. The line was extended onward to Takihara on 18 August 1926, leaving Misedani as an intermediate stop. Renaming of the Kisei-East Line as the Kisei Main Line followed on 15 July 1959. With the JNR privatisation of 1 April 1987 the station joined JR Central, and it became unattended on 1 April 2012. From the March 2006 timetable revision every Nanki limited express began calling here, replacing an earlier pattern in which some Nanki services bypassed the station.
