A laundry treating apparatus includes a door, where a first rotational axis forms a rotation center of the door, and a second rotational axis forms another rotation center of the door. The second rotational axis is provided to rotate the door in a direction different from a direction in which the door is rotated about the first rotational axis. A first switching unit is configured to connect the door to the first rotational axis, and a second switching unit is configured to connect the door to the second rotational axis when the first switching unit is moved in a direction in which the door is separated from the first rotational axis.
