A method for manufacturing a laminated electrode body in which a plurality of rectangular positive electrode plates and a plurality of rectangular negative electrode plates are alternately laminated with rectangular separators interposed therebetween, the method comprising:
- a strip-shaped laminated body production step of producing a pressed strip-shaped laminated body;
- a cutting step of cutting the pressed strip-shaped laminated body to obtain rectangular plate-shaped unit laminated bodies in each of which the positive electrode plate, the separator, the negative electrode plate, and the separator are laminated in this order;
- and
- a laminating step of laminating the unit laminated bodies on each other to form the laminated electrode body.
