Abstract

A display panel and a display device. The display panel comprises: touch wirings, electrically connected to touch electrodes, and located at one side, away from a base substrate, of a barrier wall structure; the touch wirings each comprise first wiring portions; orthographic projections of at least some of the first wiring portions on the base substrate overlap an orthographic projection of a first barrier wall portion on the base substrate; the first wiring portions each comprise at least one first wiring sub-portion having an average width of a first width, and at least one second wiring sub-portion having an average width of a second width; and in an extending direction of the first wiring portion, the minimum distance between an orthographic projection of the first wiring sub-portion on the base substrate and an orthographic projection of the first barrier wall portion on the base substrate is less than or equal to 15 μm, and the first width is less than the second width, thereby reducing the frequency of short circuits.
