A bird's-eye view image generation device includes: an image data acquisition unit that acquires periphery image data obtained by photographing a periphery of a vehicle; an obstacle information acquisition unit that acquires positional information of an obstacle detected in the periphery of the vehicle; a bird's-eye view image generation unit that generates a bird's-eye view image obtained by combining periphery images acquired by the image data acquisition unit, the periphery images having been subjected to viewpoint conversion processing so that a virtual viewpoint is positioned at a position at which the vehicle and the obstacle can be overlooked, based on the positional information of the obstacle acquired by the obstacle information acquisition unit; and a display control unit that causes a display panel to display the bird's-eye view image generated by the bird's-eye view image generation unit.
