is a railway station of West Japan Railway Company (JR-West) in Kizugawa, Kyoto, Japan. Although the station is on the Kansai Main Line as rail infrastructure, it serves as terminal by both the Kansai Line and Yamatoji Line in terms of passenger train services.
The station has two island platforms with three tracks on the ground level.
The station opened in 1897 as a station on the Kansai Railway, which connected Osaka and Nagoya via Nara. The Kansai Railway was nationalized in 1907 and became the Kansai Main Line.
