A holding apparatus and a holding unit are disclosed. The holding apparatus (4) includes a base plate (21), a fixed holding member (22) fixed on the base plate, a first movable holding member (11) arranged in opposed relation to and having a face adapted to operate in collaboration with the fixed holding member for holding a workpiece, a second movable holding member (12) adapted to operate in collaboration with said face of said first movable holding member in operatively interlocked relationship therewith for holding a workpiece, and a drive device (19) for driving the first movable holding member and the second movable holding member in operatively interlocked relationship with each other. Therefore, holding power can be increased easily without a large space. The holding apparatus may further include a removing device (24,25,26) for removing the second movable holding member from between the first movable holding member and the fixed holding member when holding the workpiece (20) with the first movable holding member and the fixed holding member.
