Embodiments are for a confocal microscope unit attached to a connection port of a microscope including: light sources which output irradiation light to a sample to be observed; photodetectors which detect observation light generated from a sample in response to the irradiation light; a scan mirror which scans the irradiation light on the sample and guides the observation light generated from the sample to the photodetectors; a scan lens which guides the irradiation light scanned by the scan mirror to the microscope optical system and guides the observation light focused by the microscope optical system to the scan mirror; a lens barrel to which the scan lens is fixed; an attachment portion which attaches the lens barrel to the connection port; and a movable portion which supports the lens barrel so that an angle of the lens barrel with respect to the attachment portion is changeable.
