A microstructure includes a substrate, a fixed supporting portion fixed to the substrate, a first movable portion, a second movable portion enhancing the rigidity of the first movable portion, and an elastic supporting portion elastically interconnecting the first movable portion and the fixed supporting portion. The second movable portion is secured to the first movable portion with a gap interposed therebetween and in such a manner as to cover the elastic supporting portion and the fixed supporting portion. The first movable portion and the second movable portion are elastically supported by the elastic supporting portion in such a manner as to be displaceable together relative to the fixed supporting portion.
