History

Kii-Nagata Station opened on March 7, 1903 as the Nagata Temporary Stop (長田臨時停車場, Nagata rinji teishaba) on the Kiwa Railway. The line was sold to the Kansai Railway in 1904, which was subsequently nationalized in 1907. The station was renamed to the Nagata Provisional Stop (長田仮停車場, Nagata kari teishaba) on February 22, 1908. It became a full station on July 15, 1938, but was closed from August 10, 1941 to September 23, 1952. With the privatization of the Japan National Railways (JNR) on April 1, 1987, the station came under the aegis of the West Japan Railway Company.
