An organic light emitting display apparatus and a method of manufacturing the same. The display apparatus includes first, second, and third sub-pixels formed on a substrate. The first sub-pixel includes a first pixel electrode, a first transmissive conductive layer formed on the first pixel electrode, a second transmissive conductive layer formed on the first transmissive conductive layer, a first organic light emitting layer formed on the second transmissive conductive layer, and a counter electrode formed on the first organic light emitting layer. The second sub-pixel includes a second pixel electrode, the first transmissive conductive layer formed on the second pixel electrode, a first protector covering an edge of the first transmissive conductive layer, a second organic light emitting layer electrically connected to the first transmissive conductive layer, and the counter electrode formed on the second organic light emitting layer. The third sub-pixel includes a third pixel electrode, a second protector covering an outer edge of the third pixel electrode, a third protector formed on the second protector, a third organic light emitting layer electrically connected to the third pixel electrode, and the counter electrode formed on the third organic light emitting layer.
