A laminate battery is provided with a tab, an electric power generating element connected to the tab, and a laminate sheet allowing the electric power generating element to be accommodated. The laminate sheet includes a metallic layer and a thermally welding resin layer laminated on the metallic layer. The tab and the thermally welding resin layer are welded by permitting a thermally welding area, which is formed in at least one of the thermally welding resin layer and the tab, and the other of the thermally welding resin layer and the tab to be welded to one another.
