A disc cartridge including a cartridge body and a disc housed therein. The cartridge body has an aperture exposing part of the disc and a shutter to open and close the aperture. The shutter has a connecting arm extending from one side. An elastic moving piece extends along the connecting arm with the base end fixed to the free end of the connecting arm. The base end of the shutter has a movement guide piece with a window through which a pressing piece projects. A shutter movement limiting member pivots on the shutter to limit the shutter from opening when the aperture is closed by engaging an engagement portion on a movement limiter provided on the cartridge body. The shutter movement limiting member further pivots with the elastic moving piece to disengage the engagement portion from the movement limiter when a force is applied to the pressing piece.
