A semiconductor storage device includes: a first memory cell joined to first and second word lines and a first match line; and a second memory cell joined to the first and second word lines and a second match line. The first and second memory cells are arranged adjacent to each other in planar view, and the first and second word lines are formed using wirings of a first wiring layer. The first and second match lines are formed using wirings of a second wiring layer provided adjacent to the first wiring layer. The first and second word lines are provided in parallel with each other between two first wirings to which a first reference potential is supplied. The first and second match lines are provided in parallel with each other between two second wirings to which the first reference potential is supplied.
