The method and the device for positioning a columnar structure which can promote properties of the resulting columnar structure (ceramic honeycomb structure), such as thermal shock resistance, isostatic strength, thermal stress, mechanical stress, and the like, and can exhibit improved productivity due to excellent drying performance of the coated areas by approximation of the central axis of the columnar structure and the central axis of the seat, thereby flattening the coating thickness when a coating is applied to the outer circumferential surface of the columnar structure, are provided. After causing the positioning fixture to abut on the seat mounting the columnar structure thereon, the columnar structure is moved from the seat using a positioning adjustment fixture placed opposing the positioning fixture, while keeping the columnar structure to abut on the positioning adjustment fixture at one or two points, thereby causing the columnar structure to abut on the positioning fixture. The columnar structure is positioned so that its central axis approximately coincides with the central axis of the seat and the columnar structure is supported at three or four points by the positioning fixture and the positioning adjustment fixture.
