Dielectric properties at microwave frequency region of the five-layered compound $Ba_5Nb_4O_{15}$ prepared by the conventional solid state reaction method were investigated. $Ba_5Nb_4O_{15}$ has excellent microwave dielectric characteristics; ${\varepsilon}_r$=38, Q=7500 at 10 GHz, and ${\tau}_l$=+50 ppm/K. Since this compound has a high dielectric constant, high Q and sufficiently stable characteristics, it is useful for the applications at microwave frequencies.
