Kasamatsu Station opened on 2 June 1914 in the town of Kasamatsu, Gifu Prefecture, originally as Kasamatsuguchi Station. It became Kasamatsu Station on 1 February 1916 and was relocated slightly on 1 October the same year. On 29 April 1935 the station was moved again and renamed Shin-Kasamatsu ("new Kasamatsu") Station; a final relocation in May 1936 brought it to its present site and the Shin- prefix was dropped. It is operated by the private Meitetsu and is now a junction between the Nagoya Main Line (91.5 km from Toyohashi) and the Takehana Line (10.3 km from Egira). The staffed ground-level station has an island platform and a side platform connected by a footbridge.

Kasamatsu changed its location three times — and its name twice — within a 22-year stretch ending in 1936; the suffix "shin" (new) marking the 1935 site survives today only in regional railway timetables.
