The first stop here was a signal station named Ono, opened on 1 April 1929, a short distance toward Odawara from the present site. On 1 April 1938 the army's signal school moved to this area, and the signal station became a station for it, named Tsushin-gakko. In December 1940 it was renamed Sagami-Ono to conceal the army facility.
