History

The station opened on January 8, 1958.[1]

From March 14, 2015, with the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen extension from Nagano to Kanazawa, local passenger operations over sections of the Shinetsu Main Line and Hokuriku Main Line running roughly parallel to the new shinkansen line were reassigned to third-sector railway operating companies.[2] From this date, Sansai Station was transferred to the ownership of the third-sector operating company Shinano Railway.
