History

Nagato-Misumi Station was opened on 3 November 1924 when the Japan Government Railways Mine Line was extended from Masaakishi Station (now Nagatoshi Station). The line was further extended to Hagi Station on 3 April 1925. The station building was destroyed by fire on 12 December 1932. This portion of the Mine Line was incorporated into the San'in Main Line on 24 February 1933. Freight operations were discontinued on 31 March 1977. With the privatization of the Japan National Railway (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the aegis of the West Japan railway Company (JR West).
