History

The name of the station was finalized on 1 July 2021[2], and its symbol was revealed on 7 January 2022.[3]

Kushida Shrine Station began operations on 27 March 2023,[4] when the Nanakuma Line was extended east to Hakata Station.[5] Originally scheduled for a 2020 opening, a sinkhole pushed back the opening date by three years.[6]
