Original Abstract Submitted

The sulfide solid-state battery of the present disclosure has a battery laminate having one or more unit batteries; and an inorganic coating layer covering at least a portion of the periphery of the battery laminate. The unit battery is formed by laminating a positive electrode layer, a solid electrolyte layer, and a negative electrode layer in this order. At least one of the positive electrode layer, the solid electrolyte layer, and the negative electrode layer contains a sulfide solid electrolyte. The inorganic coating layer is made of an inorganic glass having a glass transition point of 260° C. or higher and 360° C. or lower.
