Zusammenfassung:	A gate valve opens and closes a first opening of a first chamber in a vacuum processing apparatus. The gate valve includes: a valve element configured to open and close the first opening; a drive configured to move the valve element so that the valve element takes at least a closing position, where the valve element closes the first opening, and an opening position, where the valve element opens the first opening; a first gas line and a second gas line; and a first switching valve that connects one of the first gas line and the second gas line to the drive. The drive moves the valve element from the opening position to the closing position by pressure of gas supplied from the first gas line or the second gas line, and holds the valve element at the closing position by pressure of gas supplied from the second gas line.
