Disclosed is an ultrasound probe which is composed of a plurality of piezoelectric vibrators having an electrode on each of two opposite surfaces, an acoustic matching layer arranged on the first surface among the two opposite surfaces, a wiring board so arranged on the acoustic matching layer as to be in contact with the piezoelectric vibrator, and a conductor electrically connecting the wiring board with the electrode on the second surface among the two opposite surfaces. This ultrasound probe is characterized in that the surface of the wiring board on the same side as the second surface of the piezoelectric vibrator is positioned relatively lower than the second surface of the piezoelectric vibrator.
