A hologram device includes: a support section that keeps hold of, to be able to be attachable and removable, a hologram record carrier including a hologram recording layer stored therein with an optical interference pattern of a coherent signal light and a coherent reference light as a diffraction grating; a light source that generates the coherent reference light; a signal light generation section that is disposed on an optical axis, and generates the signal light by modulating the reference light in accordance with recording information; and an interference section that is disposed on the optical axis, and forms the diffraction grating being the optical interference pattern inside of the hologram recording layer by directing the signal light and the reference light toward the hologram recording layer. The signal light generation section is provided with a spatial light modulator, and the spatial light modulator is configured by a center are a disposed on the optical axis for passing through or reflecting the reference light with no modulation, and a spatial light modulation are a disposed around the center are a for generating the signal light by modulating the reference light in accordance with the recording information. The reference light is propagated on the optical axis, and the signal light is propagated around the reference light with spatial separation therefrom. The interference section includes an objective lens and an optical device, and the objective lens and the optical device gather the reference light at a first focal point, and the signal light at a second focal point being different from the first focal point.
