摘要： The present invention provides a magnet unit and a position detection device that are excellent in thermal shock resistance without the risk of being damaged due to a temperature change and that are capable of detecting a position with high accuracy. A magnet unit comprises: a magnet that moves in a linear or rotating manner relative to a magnetic detection element (magnetic detection section) for detecting a change in a magnetic field; and a magnet holding member that moves in a linear or rotating manner while being fixed to an object L to be detected and that holds the magnet attached thereto. The magnet holding member has a fixed part that is fixed to the object L to be detected and a magnet housing part to which the magnet is attached. The magnet housing part has openings where opposite end surface portions of the magnet are exposed.
