Liquid crystal display device and method of manufacturing the same

A liquid crystal display device, comprising:

• a first substrate;
• a first organic insulating film arranged on the first substrate in a circumference area outside an active area for displaying images;
• a trench formed in the first organic insulating film along an edge of the first substrate;
• a second substrate;
• a light shield layer arranged on the second substrate facing the first substrate in the circumference area;
• a first color filter and a second color filter which are arranged on the light shield layer and facing the first substrate;
• a second organic insulating film covering the first color filter and the second color filter;
• a seal material arranged between the first organic insulating film and the second organic insulating film to attach the first substrate and the second substrate;
• a plurality of spacers arranged in the seal material;
• and
• a liquid crystal layer held in a gap surrounded with the seal material between the first substrate and the second substrate,
• wherein the first color filter is separated from the second color filter, and the spacers are arranged in a line along the trench.
