History
Shin-Shimonoseki Station opened on 27 May 1901 as Ichinomiya Station (一ノ宮駅) when the line was extended from Asa Station to Bakan Station (present-day Shimonoseki Station) The San'yō Railway was railway nationalized in 1906 and the line renamed the San'yō Main Line in 1909. The station was renamed Nagato Ichinomiya Station (長門一宮駅) on 1 January 1916. The station was moved to its present location on 19 November 1928, per a route change of the San'yō Main Line between Chōfu and Shimonoseki.
