Atsuta Station was opened on March 1, 1886, with the completion of the Japanese Government Railway (JGR) line connecting to Taketoyo Station. This line was named the Tōkaidō Line in 1895 and the Tōkaidō Main Line in 1909. The station was relocated to its present location on September 1, 1896. The station was destroyed in the Bombing of Nagoya in World War II on May 17, 1945, and was rebuilt on June 22, 1947. The JGR became the JNR after World War II. A new station building was completed in October 1982. With the privatization and dissolution of the JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control of the Central Japan Railway Company.
Station numbering was introduced to the section of the Tōkaidō Line operated JR Central in March 2018; Atsuta Station was assigned station number CA65.[3] [4]
In fiscal 2017, the station was used by an average of 3,057 passengers daily[5]
