PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve a high-quality liquid crystal display device in which the occurrence of an afterimage is suppressed.SOLUTION: The liquid crystal display device includes: a TFT substrate in which an alignment layer is formed on a pixel having a pixel electrode and a TFT; a counter substrate which counters the TFT substrate and in which an alignment layer is formed on a color filter; and a liquid crystal which is sandwiched between the alignment layer of the TFT substrate and the alignment layer of the counter substrate. The alignment layer is constituted of: a first alignment layer 2 having first polyimide which contacts a liquid crystal layer 4; and a second alignment layer 3 having second polyimide which is formed in a lower layer of the first alignment layer. In the liquid crystal display device, resistibility of the first alignment layer 2 is larger than resistibility of the second alignment layer 3, alignment processing is applied to the first alignment layer 2, and a third alignment laye
