History

Kazamatsuri Station was opened on 10 October 1935, when the Hakone Tozan Railway (founded 1928) changed its tram line, Odawawa - Hakone-Yumoto, to a railway. The station was completely reconstructed in 2007–2008.

Station numbering was introduced in January 2014 with Kazamatsuri being assigned station number OH49.^[1][2]

On 1 April 2024, operations of the station came under the aegis of Odakyu Hakone resulting from restructuring of Odakyu Group operations in the Hakone area.^[3]
