A varistor includes a ceramic insulating substrate, a varistor section having an outer surface, and first and second external electrodes provided on the outer surface of the varistor section. The varistor section includes a varistor layer on the ceramic insulating substrate, first and second internal electrodes, and first and second via-conductors embedded in the varistor layer and exposing from the varistor layer. The second internal electrode has a portion facing the first internal electrode. The first internal electrode and the portion of the second internal electrode sandwiches at least a portion of the varistor layer. The first and second via-conductors are connected to the first and second internal electrodes, respectively. The first and second external electrodes are connected to the first and second via-conductors, respectively. This varistor has a small thickness and a large mechanical strength.
