A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming an SGT in a semiconductor pillar on a semiconductor substrate and forming a wiring semiconductor layer so as to contact a side surface of an impurity region present in a center portion of the semiconductor pillar or a side surface of a gate conductor layer. A first alloy layer formed in a side surface of the wiring semiconductor layer is directly connected to the impurity region and the gate conductor layer and is connected to an output wiring metal layer through a contact hole formed on an upper surface of a second alloy layer formed in an upper surface and the side surface of the wiring semiconductor layer.
