The present invention makes it possible to, even when a stainless steel is adopted in a diaphragm: prevent the diaphragm and a strain sensor from exfoliating from each other; be hardly susceptible to the influence of temperature in an operating environment; not allow the sensitivity of a pressure sensor to be dominated only by the mechanical characteristic of a material constituting the diaphragm; and increase the degree of freedom in design of members constituting the pressure sensor. A pressure sensor according to the present invention is, in order to solve the above problems, characterized in that: the pressure sensor has a diaphragm deforming by the pressure of a fluid, an elastic body covering the whole surface of the diaphragm and joining to the diaphragm on one side, and a strain sensor being arranged by joining on the other side of the elastic body and on an end side apart from a position corresponding to the center of the diaphragm and detecting the deformation of the elastic body working together with the deformation of the diaphragm as a strain; and the elastic body is formed of a material having a linear expansion coefficient close to the linear expansion coefficient of a material constituting the strain sensor.
