To make a piezoelectric actuator, unfired films (41) for a piezoceramic are stacked, supporting structures (44) made of a material which sets at the firing temperature of the piezoceramic and filling structures (42) made of a material which incinerates at the firing temperature being produced between every two unfired films (41). After the piezoceramic has been fired, cavities produced by the filling structures (42) being burnt out are filled with conductive material. <IMAGE>
