Station name[]

Matsue English Garden

This station was called Louis C. Tiffany Garden Museum Mae Station (ルイス・C.ティファニー庭園美術館前駅, Ruisu Shī Tifanī Teien Bijutsukan-mae Eki) which consists of 18 letters and punctuation marks and is written with 23 kana (both countings exclude eki or "Station"), which was the longest in Japan. On April 2, 2001, the station, then called Furue Station (古江駅, Furue Eki) was renamed to its previous name as the Louis C. Tiffany Garden Museum, a museum for the works of Louis Comfort Tiffany, was to open near the station. The station name was changed to its current name on May 21, 2007 as the museum had closed on March 31, 2007.^[1]

As of March 2020, the longest station name in Japan is currently a tie between Minamiaso Mizu-no-Umareru-Sato Hakusui-Kōgen Station on the Minami Aso Railway in Kumamoto Prefecture and Chojagahama Shiosai Hamanasu Koenmae Station on the Kashima Rinkai Railway in Ibaraki Prefecture.^[2]
