history

View of the platforms

The railway company Odawara Kyūkō Tetsudō (today's Odakyū Dentetsu ) opened the station on April 1, 1927, together with the entire Odakyū Odawara line between Shinjuku and Odawara . For decades, Gōtokuji lay on an embankment with two tracks. As part of the four-track expansion of the Odawara line, the dam was replaced by a viaduct, which went into operation on October 24, 2004 between the Umegaoka and Kyōdō stations.
