1. A magnetic field detection apparatus comprising:
at least one magnetoresistive effect element including at least one stacked structure including a plurality of stacked functional films, the at least one stacked structure extending in a first axis direction and including a first end part, a second end part, and an intermediate part between the first end part and the second end part; and
a conductor including a first part and a second part that each extend in a second axis direction inclined with respect to the first axis direction, wherein
the first part and the second part of the conductor respectively overlap the first end part and the second end part in a predetermined axis direction orthogonal to the second axis direction.
