Meijō Kōen Station (名城公園駅, Meijō Kōen-eki) is a railway station in Kita-ku, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, Japan.[1]
This station provides access to Meijō Park. It was also used as a drop-off point by mistake by some visitors heading to Nagoya Castle, as its name contained the kanji character for the castle. This led to the Nagoya city government renaming Shiyakusho Station into Nagoyajo Station in 2023.[2]
It was opened on 20 December 1971.
