History
The station opened on 15 April 1910, when the operation of the Keihan Main Line started. The track of the Nara Line (originally the old route of the Tōkaidō Main Line) ran next to the station, but the station on the JNR line was not made until 27 December 1957. The Nara Line station on the single track line had only one platform and no passing loop until the second platform was completed in July 1994. The Nara Line was double-tracked in March 2001.

Station numbering was introduced to the JR West station in March 2018 with Tōfukuji being assigned station number JR-D02.
