History
The area of present-day Izumizaki was part of ancient Mutsu Province and the area has many burial mounds from the Kofun period. The area was divided between part of the holdings of Shirakawa Domain, Kasama Domain and tenryō territory held directly by the Tokugawa shogunate during the Edo period. After the Meiji Restoration, it was organized as part of Nishishirakawa District in the Nakadōri region of Iwaki Province. The villages of Izumizaki and Sekihira were established with the creation of the modern municipalities system on April 1, 1889. The two villages merged in 1954.
