A division line recognition apparatus including a detection part configured to detect an external situation around a subject vehicle, and an electronic control unit including a microprocessor and a memory connected to the microprocessor. The microprocessor is configured to perform generating a map including a division line information on a division line on a road based on the external situation detected by the detection part, setting an area of an external space detectable by the detection part, determining whether an end of the division line on the map is located at a boundary of the area of the external space, and adding a boundary information to the division line information when it is determined that the end of the division line is located at the boundary.
