A liquid crystal display includes a lower substrate including a pixel area and a light blocking region, a thin film transistor layer on the lower substrate and including a gate line and a data line, a color filter on the thin film transistor layer and corresponding to the pixel area, a light blocking member on the color filter and corresponding to the light blocking region, an upper substrate facing the lower substrate, and a liquid crystal layer between the lower and upper substrates. The light blocking member includes a horizontal light blocking member extending along the gate line and a vertical light blocking member extending along the data line. The color filter includes a protrusion portion overlapping a portion of the horizontal light blocking member which is in the pixel area. A sub-column spacer includes the portion of the horizontal light blocking member overlapping the protrusion portion.
