A surface texture measuring device according to the present invention includes a surface texture detecting component that outputs measurement results for a surface texture of a measurable object, where the measurement results are recognized as a change in the movement of a contact pin of a detector when tracing a surface of the measurable object with the contact pin; a posture detecting sensor that detects a measured posture, which is a posture at the time of measurement by the detector; a memory component that is preloaded with correction values corresponding to each of a plurality of postures; and a correcting component that compares the measured posture with the plurality of postures stored in the memory component, and corrects the measurement results using a correction value that corresponds to a posture equivalent to the measured posture.
