A spark plug capable of preventing breakage of a ground electrode. The spark plug is comprised of a ground electrode having a base end portion fixed to a metal shell, a bend portion integrally formed with the base end portion and being bent and a front end portion integrally formed with the bend portion and forming a spark discharge gap “g” with a center electrode. The ground electrode is comprised of a core extending from the base end portion towards the front end portion through the bend portion; and an outer layer disposed outside the core and extending from the base end portion up to the front end portion through the bend portion. The core is made of Hastelloy C serving as a first metal, and the outer layer is made of Inconel 601 serving as a second metal. Hardness of Hastelloy C is higher than that of Inconel 601.
