PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vibration control device for a structure having high workability while maintaining a vibration control function at a low cost. SOLUTION: This vibration control device provided in a space section A surrounded by columns 2 and beams 3 is provided with a main beam 4 arranged between the columns 2 and four sub-beams 5 connecting the vicinities of both end sections of the beams 3 located above and below the main beam 4 and the middle section of the main beam 4. Both end sections of the main beam 4 and the columns 2 are connected together via viscoelastic bodies (or elastoplastic bodies) 6, the sub-beams 5 and the main beam 4 are connected together via the viscoelastic bodies (or elastoplastic bodies) 6, and the sub-beams 5 and the beams 3 are connected together via pins 7 as a feature.
