History
Nachi Station opened on 4 December 1912 on the Shingu Railway between what is now Kii-Katsuura and Miwasaki. The Shingu Railway was nationalised on 1 July 1934 and the present, second-generation station building was completed in December 1936 in a design that mimics the shrine architecture of nearby Kumano Nachi Taisha. The station was de-staffed on 14 March 1985, and with the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR West. In August 1998 the local town added an exchange centre, which now houses a rest area, local-produce shop and the municipal hot-spring bath "Tashiki-no-yu" on the second floor. ICOCA use began on 13 March 2021.
Notes
The 1936 station building is designed in shrine-style architecture to echo Kumano Nachi Taisha; an attached municipal hot-spring bath, "Tashiki-no-yu", now occupies the second floor.
