History
Kōfu Station was opened on 11 June 1903 with the extension of government railway (later named Chūō Main Line) from Hajikano Station (now Kai-Yamato Station). The line was later extended from Kōfu Station to Nirasaki Station on 15 December 1903. The privately-owned Fuji-Minobu Railway connected Ichikawa-Daimon Station to Kōfu on 30 March 1928. This line was nationalized on 1 May 1941, becoming the Minobu Line. All freight operations were discontinued from 1 February 1984. Along with the division and privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the joint control of the East Japan Railway Company.
