A semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor substrate; a silicon pillar having a side surface perpendicular to a main surface of the semiconductor substrate; a gate dielectric film that covers a side surface of the silicon pillar; a gate electrode that has an inner-circumference side surface and an outer-circumference side surface which are perpendicular to the main surface of the semiconductor substrate, and covers a side surface of the silicon pillar such that the inner-circumference side surface and the side surface of the silicon pillar face each other via the gate dielectric film; a gate-electrode protection film that covers at least a part of the outer-circumference side surface of the gate electrode; an interlayer dielectric film provided above the gate electrode and the gate-electrode protection film; and a gate contact plug that is embedded in a contact hole provided on the interlayer dielectric film and is in contact with the gate electrode and the gate-electrode protection film.
