History
Opened 1911

Ōita Station (大分駅 Ōita-eki?) is a JR Kyushu railway station located in Ōita, Ōita Prefecture, Japan.

The station opened on November 1, 1911. It has since undergone renovation, reopening in 2012 — the 'main' area of the station is now the southern, rather than the northern, entrance.

There are four side platforms and eight island platforms.

The station was under construction to make it elevated. This work was to be finished by 2008 but fell behind schedule. It was completed on March 17, 2012.
