The present invention provides an optical waveguide device having a configuration such that the optical waveguide is folded back on an end area of the optical waveguide substrate to widen the modulation band. The optical waveguide device includes a substrate body made of an electro-optical material, optical waveguide, and modulation electrodes for applying a voltage on the optical waveguide. The optical waveguide includes first primary areas, a first curved area, first folding-back areas provided between the first curved area and a folding-back point, second primary areas, a second curved area, and second folding-back areas provided between the second curved area and the folding-back point. At least a part of the signal electrode is provided in a folding-back region extending from the first curved area and the second curved area to the folding-back point.
