A fuel cell is provided with a film-electrode bonded body (15) wherein ca talytic layers (15b) are bonded on the both surfaces of an electrolytic film (15a) as a pair of electrodes, and diffusion layers (16) arranged on the bo th surfaces of the film-electrode bonded body (15). The film-electrode bonde d body (15) and the diffusion layer (16) are laminated without bonding at le ast a portion between the film-electrode bonded body (15) and the diffusion layer (16). Thus, sliding and separating between the catalytic layer (15b) a nd the diffusion layer (16) are allowed.
