PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a front window support structure in which pedestrian protection performance is assured, without forming a closed cross section in a cowl part, and in which a front window member is supported by a cowl panel by eliminating a flange for connecting the cowl panel and a dash upper panel, and absorbing function of an impact load from above can be improved, and a member corresponding to the dash upper panel is not needed. SOLUTION: The front window support structure includes a dash lower panel 9 which partitions an engine room 1 and a cabin 8, and the cowl panel 15 for supporting the front window member 16. The cowl panel 15 is arranged in such a manner that the upper end section of the cowl panel 15 supports the front window member 16 in a state that the lower end section thereof is attached to the dash lower panel 9 and in a vertical or backward tilting state in a vehicle side view.
