Provided is a microwave treatment apparatus that can properly treat a treatment target using microwaves. The apparatus includes: a vessel 10 in which a treatment target 2 is arranged; a microwave irradiating unit 20 that irradiates an internal portion of the vessel 10 with microwaves; and heat generating member 30 that is provided inside the vessel 10 along the treatment target 2, generates heat by absorbing part of microwaves used for irradiation by the microwave irradiating unit 20, and transmits part of the microwaves. The microwave irradiating unit 20 irradiates a portion in which the heat generating member 30 is provided with microwaves, thereby heating the treatment target 2 from the outside through heat generation at the heat generating member 30, and directly heating the treatment target 2 with microwaves transmitted through the heat generating member 30.
