## Station history

Ikeba Station was established on November 2, 1936 as the Ikeba Signal Stop (池場停留場, Ikeba Teiryu-jo), on the now defunct Sanshin Railway. On August 1, 1943, the Sanshin Railway was nationalized along with several other local lines to form the Iida Line. On December 1, 1946, it was elevated to a full station and renamed to its present name. Along with its division and privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control and operation of the Central Japan Railway Company.
