Claim:
1. A multilayer ceramic capacitor comprising: a ceramic body including: external electrodes each provided on a respective one of the first end surface and the second end surface of the ceramic body; wherein the internal electrodes include a first internal electrode and a second internal electrode; the first internal electrode and the second internal electrode extend alternately to a respective one of the first end surface and the second end surface to be connected with a respective one of the external electrodes; an inner layer portion of the ceramic body includes a region sandwiched between the internal electrodes located nearest to the first and second main surfaces, and an outer layer portion including the dielectric ceramic layers located nearest to each of the first and second main surfaces; the dielectric ceramic layers of the inner layer portion including as a main component a perovskite-type compound containing Ba and Ti; an amount of Mg contained in the dielectric ceramic layers of the inner layer portion is not less than 0 part by mole and not more than about 0.4 part by mole, per 100 parts by mole of Ti; and each of the dielectric ceramic layers of the inner layer portion has a thickness of not more than about 0.55 μm.
