Abstract
A protective structure includes a frame, a base, a first bracket, and a second bracket. The frame forms a skeleton of a vehicle. The base is configured to disperse an impact due to a collision to the frame when the collision occurs. The first bracket is fixed to the base. The second bracket fixes and supports a protection target member to be protected from an impact due to the collision, the second bracket being fixed to the first bracket. The second bracket includes a contact portion protruding toward an adjacent member disposed adjacent to the second bracket. At least a part of the contact portion and a part of the first bracket overlap each other as viewed from a side where the contact portion protrudes.
