Hashimoto Station opened on 11 April 1898 as a station on the Kiwa Railway. The Kiwa Railway became part of the Kansai Railway in 1904, which was nationalized in 1907. On 11 March 1915, the Takano Mountain Railway connected to Hashimoto Station, and changed its name to the Osaka Takano Railway a month later. The Osaka Takano Railway merged with the Nankai Railway Company in 1922. In 1944, the Nankai Railway was forced to merge with Kintetsu per Japanese government orders. A freight train stopped at the station was bombed on 24 July 1945 by US military aircraft in World War II, resulting in five fatalities. In 1947, the Nankai Railway was spun out by Kintetsu to become an independent company once again.
In fiscal 2019, the JR portion of the station was used by an average of 2209 passengers daily (boarding passengers only) and the Nankai portion of the station was used by 7544 passengers daily (boarding passengers only). .[1]
