History

The station, then known as Axpe, first opened to the public in 1887 as part of the Bilbao-Las Arenas railway. [3]

Starting in 1947, the narrow-gauge railway companies that operated within the Bilbao metropolitan area were merged to become Ferrocarriles y Transportes Suburbanos , shortened FTS and the first precedent of today's Bilbao metro. In 1977, the FTS network was transferred to the public company FEVE and in 1982 to the recently created Basque Railways. [4] In the 1980s it was decided the station, just like most of the former railway line, would be integrated into line 1 of the metro. The new station opened as part of the metro network on 11 November 1995. [5]
