During the Edo period, Sukagawa belonged to the Shirakawa Domain. It was prospering as a major lodging place on sh Kaid, which is one of the Edo Five Routes, and was the commercial center in the region. But after mid-Meiji period, Koriyama, which had succeeded in inviting the junction of West Ban’etsu Line, took its presence.
