An R—Fe—B based rare-earth sintered magnet according to the present invention includes, as a main phase, crystal grains of an R2Fe14B type compound that includes Nd, which is a light rare-earth element, as a major rare-earth element R. The magnet includes a heavy rare-earth element RH (which is at least one of Dy and Tb) that has been introduced through the surface of the sintered magnet by diffusion. The magnet has a region in which the concentration of the heavy rare-earth element RH in a grain boundary R-rich phase is lower than at the surface of the crystal grains of the R2Fe14B type compound but higher than at the core of the crystal grains of the R2Fe14B type compound.
