An electromagnetic relay includes: a pair of fixed contact terminals, each of which has a fixed contact; a movable contact spring having a pair of movable pieces and a coupler coupling the pair of movable pieces, each of the movable pieces having a movable contact that contacts and is separated from the fixed contact; an armature having a flat plate to be adsorbed to an iron core and a hanging portion bent from the flat plate and extending downward, and moves the movable contact spring by a rotation operation; and an electromagnetic device driving the armature, wherein the hanging portion has a projection to fix the movable contact spring on a face thereof facing the electromagnetic device and a pulling portion that extends downward more than the projection and pulls the movable contact spring when a current flows between the fixed contact and the movable contact.
