There is provided a method for manufacturing a honeycomb structure capable of inhibiting a cut due to drying or firing from generating upon manufacturing a large-sized honeycomb structure. The method for manufacturing a honeycomb structure comprises the steps of: forming kneaded clay containing 3 to 6 parts by mass of a water-absorbent resin having a water-absorption ratio of 10 to 20 times with respect to 100 parts by mass of an oxide ceramic-forming raw material into a honeycomb shape to obtain a honeycomb formed article, drying the honeycomb formed article to obtain a honeycomb dried article, and firing the honeycomb dried article to obtain a honeycomb structure having a volume of 15 to 30 liter and a porosity of 55 to 70%.
