Summary:[Problem] To provide: a gold cluster catalyst which is capable of promoting/controlling a chemical reaction with high catalytic activity and selectivity; and a method for producing the gold cluster catalyst. [Solution] (1) A gold cluster catalyst that is obtained by having a carrier support clusters, each of which is an aggregate of a plurality of gold atoms, by having the carrier support a plurality of gold cluster compounds and then processing the gold cluster compounds on the carrier, each of said gold cluster compounds being stabilized by an organic ligand and comprising a predetermined number of gold atoms. This gold cluster catalyst is characterized in that each of the clusters has a particle diameter of 10 nm or less and is formed substantially only of gold atoms.
