Abstract

A liquid crystal display device includes a panel, a heater, and a temperature detector. The panel includes substrates, electrodes and liquid crystal. The electrodes and the liquid crystal are disposed between the substrates. The heater has a transparent heating member, and the heating member emits heat by being supplied with electricity. At least a part of the heating member of the heater is located to overlap with a display area of the panel in a thickness direction of the substrates. A temperature detecting portion of the temperature detector and the heating member of the heater are located adjacent to each other.
