On January 17, 1995, the station was damaged by the Great Hanshin earthquake. Service in the affected area was restored by June 26, 1995.[3]

Station numbering was introduced on 21 December 2013, with Fukae being designated as station number HS-21.[4]

Between April 2009 and November 2019, the line between Sumiyoshi Station and Ashiya Station underwent grade separation.[5][6] The elevated westbound tracks opened for service in December 2015 while the eastbound tracks opened for service on November 30, 2019.
