Claim:
A nonvolatile memory device comprising: a nonvolatile memory cell formed in a memory cell region; a first wire formed in a contact forming region adjacent to the memory cell region; second wires that extend in a first direction from the memory cell region to the contact forming region, and disposed at a different layer than the first wire, and including a first line portion extending in a second direction crossing the first direction in the contact forming region, and including a second line portion extending in the first direction in the memory cell region and in the contact forming region, and including a bending portion of which the second line portion connects to the first line portion; and a contact plug contacting the first line portion and connecting to the second wires and the first wire, wherein the contact plug has a rectangular shape with two sides extending in the first direction and two sides extending in the second direction; wherein a width of the first line portion in the first direction is equal to a width of the second line portion in the second direction, and the contact plug contacts an upper surface and first side surfaces of the first line portion such that a portion of the first line portion penetrates through the two sides of the contact plug extending in the first direction in a planar view.
