A semiconductor device includes: multiple kinds of interlayer insulating films formed on a semiconductor substrate and having different elastic moduli, respectively; a metal pad arranged on said multiple kinds of interlayer insulating films; the interlayer insulating film of a low elastic modulus having the lowest elastic modulus and having an opening located under the metal pad, the interlayer insulating film of a not-low elastic modulus having the elastic modulus larger than the elastic modulus of the interlayer insulating film of the low elastic modulus, being layered in contact with the interlayer insulating film of the low elastic modulus, and continuously extending over the opening and a region surrounding the opening and a metal interconnection layer arranged under the metal pad, filling the opening in the interlayer insulating film of the low elastic modulus, and being in contact with the interlayer insulating film of the not-low elastic modulus.
