Provided is a solid oxide fuel cell which is not susceptible to separation between a metal supporting body and an electrode layer and has excellent power generation characteristics. A solid oxide fuel cell (1) which is provided with: a supporting body (2) that is formed of a porous metal and has a base part (2a) and a side wall part (2b) which is positioned on the base part (2a) and is provided so as to be integrally continued to the base part (2a); a first electrode layer (5) that is provided on the base part (2a) of the supporting body (2) and has first and second main surfaces (5a, 5b) and a lateral surface (5c); a solid oxide electrolyte layer (3) that is provided on the first electrode layer (5); and a second electrode layer (4) that is provided on the solid oxide electrolyte layer (3). The base part (2a) of the supporting body (2) is in contact with the first or second main surface (5a, 5b) of the first electrode layer (5), and the inner surface of the side wall part (2b) of the supporting body (2) is in contact with at least a part of the lateral surface (5c) of the first electrode layer (5) so as to apply a compressive force thereto. |
