A magnetic sensor (1) includes: a nonmagnetic substrate (10); and a sensitive element (31) including a plurality of soft magnetic layers (105) (lower soft magnetic layer (105a) and upper soft magnetic layer (105b)) laminated on or above the substrate (10) and a conductor layer (106) laminated between the plurality of soft magnetic layers (105) and having higher conductivity than the plurality of soft magnetic layers (105). The sensitive element (31) has a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction and has uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction. The sensitive element (31) is configured to sense a magnetic field by a magnetic impedance effect.
