The subject is to shown a liquid crystal display device that has characteristics such as a short response time, a large voltage holding ratio, a low threshold voltage, a large contrast ratio, a long service life and a small flicker rate. The disclosure relates to a liquid crystal display device having an electrode group formed on one or both of a pair of substrates that are opposed to each other, and a plurality of active devices connected to the electrode group, and a liquid crystal alignment film formed on the opposing surfaces of the pair of substrates, and a liquid crystal composition sandwiched in between the pair of substrates, wherein the liquid crystal alignment film includes a polymer having a photodegradable group, and the liquid crystal composition includes at least one compound selected from the group consisting of compounds represented by formula (1) as a first component: |
