Legend
Karasuma Line towards Kokusaikaikan Kyōto Tōji Kujō Jūjō Jūjō Kamitobaguchi Kamo River Kuinabashi Takeda Kyoto Line towards Yamato-Saidaiji

The station is a junction of the following two railway lines:

• Kyoto Municipal Subway
  • Karasuma Line
• Kintetsu Railway
  • Kyoto Line
  • Kyoto/Kashihara Line

The station is the southern terminal station on the former and an intermediate station of the latter. The two operators jointly provide through services between the two lines.

The station has two island platforms and four tracks. This is the sole subway station on the ground level in the Kyoto Subway system while all other stations are located underground.^[3]

The station was opened by the Nara Electric Railway (奈良電気鉄道, Nara Denki Tetsudō) as Jōnangūmae Station (城南宮前駅) on November 15, 1928, when the railway started the operation between Kyoto and Momoyamagoryō-mae stations.^[4] On April 1, 1940, the station was renamed Takeda Station. The Nara Electric Railway was merged into the Kintetsu Railway on October 1, 1963, so that the station belonged Kintetsu since then.^{[5][citation needed]}

On June 11, 1988, when the extension of the Karasuma Line subway was completed^[6] the station was moved to its current site where is about 350 meters north of the original location and was expanded to serve both Kintetsu and subway lines. At this time the station was handed from Kintetsu to the transportation bureau.^{[citation needed]}
