An LC filter includes a multilayer body including dielectric layers layered therein, plate electrodes, capacitor electrodes, inductor vias, and ground vias. The plate electrodes are provided on different layers of the multilayer body. The capacitor electrodes each define a capacitor between itself and the electrode. The inductor via is connected with the electrode and the capacitor electrode, while the inductor via is connected with the electrode and the capacitor electrode. The ground vias connect the plate electrodes to each other. The inductor via and the capacitor electrode define a resonance circuit that receives a signal from an input terminal. The inductor via and the capacitor electrode define a resonance circuit that transfers a signal to the output terminal.
