A method for producing a monolithic porous body having a trimodal hierarchical porous structure by a sol-gel method is provided. The method includes a sol preparation step of preparing a precursor sol, a gelation step of inducing a sol-gel transition and a phase separation in parallel on the precursor sol in a gelation container housing a template obtained by configuring organic polymer fibers into an aggregation having a three-dimensional spread, to form a gel made of a co-continuous structure of a hydrogel phase and a solvent phase, in the space around the organic polymer fibers, and a removal step of removing the solvent phase and the organic polymer fibers individually or simultaneously from the gel. The organic polymer fibers have a structure in which the cross section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction is contractible while the extension in the longitudinal direction is restricted. Template holes, through-pores and smallpores are formed in voids remaining after the removal of the organic polymer fibers, voids remaining after the removal of the solvent phase, and a skeleton of the hydrogel phase, respectively.
