History
Kiki Station opened on 14 December 1939 as an intermediate stop when Japanese Government Railways extended the Mugi Line from Awa-Fukui to Hiwasa. The station lies in the fishing settlement of Kiki in Minami, Kaifu District, Tokushima Prefecture, on the narrow flat land at the mouth of the Kiki River. It sits 47.2 km from the Mugi Line's beginning at Tokushima and carries the number M19. The station became an outsourced (gyōmu-itaku) station on 1 April 1963, lost freight handling on 1 April 1970 and parcel handling on 1 October 1972 when it became a kan'i-itaku unstaffed stop, and became fully unstaffed on 28 February 2020 when the kan'i-itaku arrangement was dissolved. The toilet was removed on 5 August 2019. JR Shikoku inherited the station at the 1987 JNR privatisation.
