Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising; a first substrate and a second substrate disposed in opposition to each other with a liquid crystal interposed therebetween; and a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of drain lines intersecting said plurality of gate lines formed on a liquid-crystal-side surface of the first substrate, wherein a plurality of spacers are formed on a liquid-crystal-side surface of the second substrate, and each of said plurality of spacers is arranged in one corresponding pixel region of a plurality of pixel regions, each of said plurality of pixel regions being defined by two adjacent gate lines of said plurality of gate lines and two adjacent drain lines of said plurality of drain lines, wherein an uneven portion of a rectangular shape is formed in an area on the first substrate facing an end portion of one corresponding spacer of said plurality of spacers, and the end portion of said one corresponding spacer of said plurality of spacers on said second substrate and the uneven portion of the rectangular shape contact mutually, and wherein a long side of the uneven portion of the rectangular shape is longer than one corresponding side of the end portion of said one corresponding spacer of said plurality of spacers, and a short side of the uneven portion is shorter than another side of the end portion of said one corresponding spacer.
