PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To inhibit the generation of defects such as wrinkle and warping and deformation of cells in a drying process in manufacturing a honeycomb molding. SOLUTION: This drying device 10 has a furnace body 14 storing the honeycomb molding 12 inside, a superheated steam generating means generating the superheated steam and supplying the same into the furnace body, a dry air supplying means for supplying the dry air into the furnace body, and a control means for controlling the supply of dry air into the furnace body by the dry air supplying means. The control means adjusts mixing quantities in the furnace of the superheated steam generated and supplied by the superheated steam generating means and the dry air supplied by the dry air supplying means, and sprays the superheated steam and the dry air of which the mixing quantities are adjusted, to the honeycomb molding stored in the furnace body.
