Estimations of magnetic fields of neutron stars, observed as radio and X-ray pulsars, are discussed. It is shown that theoretical and observational values for different types of radiopulsars are in good correspondence. Magnetic fields of X-ray pulsars are estimated from the cyclotron line energy. In the case of Her X-1 this estimation exceeds considerably the value of its magnetic field obtained from long term observational data related to the beam structure evolution. Another interpretation of the cyclotron feature, based on the relativistic dipole radiation mechanism, could remove this discrepancy. Observational data about soft gamma repeaters and their interpretation as magnetars are critically analyzed.
