History
Aoyama Station was opened on July 10, 1933, as Minami Narawa Station (南成岩駅, Minami Narawa-eki)on the Chita Railway. The Chita Railway became part of the Meitetsu group on February 2, 1943. A new station building was completed in April 1993. On January 29, 2005, the station was renamed to its present name.[3] In July 2006, the Tranpass system of magnetic fare cards with automatic turnstiles was implemented, and the station became unattended after that date. The station building was reconstructed in 2010. A railway elevation project around this station was completed in 2013.[4]
