A piezoelectric resonator suitable for use in a high frequency band is provided, in which variation in the piezoelectric material is reduced, variation in performance is reduced, and production can be performed without the need for a polarization treatment step. In the piezoelectric resonator, a piezoelectric material made of a wurtzite structure compound crystal is disposed, the crystal epitaxially grown in such a way that a (1,1,-2,0) crystal face becomes parallel to a surface of the R-plane sapphire substrate having a (0,1,-1,2) crystal face parallel to the substrate surface, and a pair of excitation electrodes are disposed on a pair of principal surfaces opposite to each other in the thickness direction of the piezoelectric material in such a way that the pair of excitation electrodes sandwich the C plane which is a (0,0,0,1) crystal face perpendicular to the (1,1,-2,0) crystal face of the tabular piezoelectric material.
