PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a micromanipulator capable of surely and quickly gripping a microscopic object in a microscopic visual field. SOLUTION: This micromanipulator has a handling mechanism 104 for gripping the microscopic object by two gripping fingers. The handling mechanism 104 has an immovable fixed finger 505 having an end effector 505a contacting with the microscopic object, a movable finger 507 having an end effector 507a contacting with the microscopic object and rotatable around a fulcrum shaft, and an actuator 502 for rotating the movable finger 507 around the fulcrum shaft; and is constituted so that the tip of the end effector 507a of the movable finger 507 can contact with the tip of the end effector 505a of the fixed finger 505 by rotating the movable finger 507 by driving of the actuator 502.
