history

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 . It got its name from the Seijō University ( Seijō Gakuen ) founded ten years earlier in the vicinity. The rapid growth of the university soon made it necessary to expand the facility. The station with two tracks on a central platform, which was then located in a cut, received a new reception building in the form of a riding station as early as 1932 . On October 1, 1946, express trains stopped here for the first time. Although the college has had university status since 1950 and is called Seijō Daigaku , the name of the station remained the same.

From the mid-1970s, the Odakyū Dentetsu planned to expand the most heavily loaded section of the Odawara line from two to four tracks, but lengthy expropriation and compensation proceedings delayed implementation again and again and led to plan changes. Work in the area of ​​Seijōgakuen-mae finally began in 1996; they included the construction of a tunnel station and the covering of the cut. The first of the two underground central platforms went into operation on June 16, 2002, after which the old above-ground station was demolished. The second central platform followed on September 26, 2004, together with the four-track section between Kyōdō and Kitami. With the opening of the Seijō Corty shopping center on September 29, 2006, the work was completed.
