A piezoelectric element includes a stack including a plurality of internal electrodes and a plurality of piezoelectric layers stacked on one another, and a surface electrode located on a side surface of the stack and connected to the plurality of internal electrodes. A second electrode illustrated in FIG. 3B includes a first conductor including a strip extending in a longitudinal direction and an extension having one end continuous with the strip and another end exposed on the side surface of the stack and connected to the surface electrode. The piezoelectric element includes a second conductor located between the extension and an opposite portion of the side surface of the stack opposite to a portion of the side surface on which the other end of the extension is exposed.
