Sakae Station (栄駅, Sakae-eki) is an underground metro station located in Naka-ku, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, Japan operated by the Nagoya Municipal Subway.^[3] It is an interchange station between the Higashiyama Line and the Meijō Line and is located 9.0 rail kilometers from the terminus of the Higashiyama Line at Takabata Station and 3.0 rail kilometers from the terminus of the Meijō Line at Kanayama Station.

The station is connected underground with Hisaya-ōdōri Station (on the subway Meijō Line and Sakura-dōri Line) and with Sakaemachi Station (the terminus of the Meitetsu Seto Line).

History

The new subway system replaced the electric tram which had run above ground. The No. 2 Line (later named the Meijō Line) connected to the station on 15 October 1965. The station was renamed to its present name on 1 June 1966.^[4]
