A dielectric filter includes a first dielectric layer containing at least a pair of strip-line resonators to be electromagnetically coupled to each other. Second and third dielectric layers are disposed in an opposed relation to each other with the first dielectric layer sandwiched therebetween and having substantially the same dielectric constant (K1). Each of the second and third dielectric layers contains at least one shield electrode. The dielectric filter further includes fourth and fifth dielectric layers which have substantially the same dielectric constant (K2) and are interposed between the first and second dielectric layers and between the first and third dielectric layers, respectively. The dielectric constant (K2) of the fourth and fifth dielectric layers is selected to be less than any one of the dielectric constant (K1) of the second and third dielectric layers and the dielectric constant (K3) of the first dielectric layer.
