Yunoo Station opened on 1 September 1948. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR West.
Effective the 16 March 2024 timetable revision, this station was transferred to the Hapi-Line Fukui Line due to the opening of the western extension of the Hokuriku Shinkansen from Kanazawa to Tsuruga.[1]
