The present invention provides metallocene compounds which exhibit high polymerization activity for production of highly stereoregular polymers, as well as a production process for olefin polymers which employs olefin polymerization catalysts containing the compounds, and olefin polymers obtained by the production process. A metallocene compound of the present invention is represented by the following general formula (1):YKLMX2??(1)wherein M represents a titanium atom, zirconium atom or hafnium atom; K and L are fused rings coordinated to M and each independently represents a fused ring of a cyclopentadienyl ring and a 5-membered ring, a fused ring of a cyclopentadienyl ring and a 6-membered ring or a fused ring of a cyclopentadienyl ring and a 7-membered ring; Y is a bridge group crosslinking K and L; and each X is bonded to M; and K and L have a 2-furyl group, substituted 2-furyl group, 2-thienyl group, substituted 2-thienyl group, 2-furfuryl group or substituted 2-furfuryl group on at least one position among each of the 2-positions, 4-positions and 5-positions.
