History

Sabae Station opened on 15 July 1896 in what is now the Hinodecho neighbourhood of Sabae, Fukui Prefecture, on a section of conventional line later incorporated into the Hokuriku Main Line. With the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR West. From the timetable revision on 16 March 2024, when the parallel Hokuriku Shinkansen extension opened, the conventional-line station was transferred from JR West to the third-sector Hapi-Line Fukui, on whose 40.3 km Hapi-Line Fukui Line the station now lies. The layout comprises one side platform and one island platform connected by a footbridge, with a staffed Midori no Madoguchi ticket office.
