Kitano-Masuzuka Station was opened on October 1, 1970 as a freight station on the Japan National Railways (JNR), primary to support the operations of nearby factories of Toyota Motors and its affiliated companies. Scheduled passenger operations began from April 26, 1976. Freight operations were discontinued from January 1, 1985. With the privatization of the JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under control of the JR-Tokai. The station was transferred to the third sector Aichi Loop Railway Company on January 31, 1988. The station was expanded with the addition of another track on December 23, 2001 in preparation for the 2005 Aichi World Exposition.
