To provide a movable handrail which stably holds a posture in a using state of a handrail member, enables the reduction of the number of component parts, facilitates the assembly operation and enables the reduction of the production cost.

The movable handrail H is formed to be turned between a horizontal position in a using time and a standing position in a non-use time and has an approximately U-shaped handrail body 1 which can stop at the horizontal position and the standing position, wherein a hollow cylindrical rotating shaft 2 connected to an end of the handrail body 1 is rotatably fitted on a fixed shaft 4 supported by a bracket 3 fixed to a wall surface W, the resilient force is applied in a direction of the standing position of the handrail body 1 by a spring member 5 interposed between the rotating shaft 2 and the fixed shaft 4, and a magnetic body 10 disposed at the other end of the handrail body 1 can be attracted on a magnet 6 fixed to a wall surface part 31 of the bracket 3.
