A vacuum adiabatic body includes a conductive resistance sheet which blocks heat conduction between plate members, and a sealing frame which covers the conductive resistance sheet. The sealing frame includes a side surface part, an outer surface part which is bent and extends from a side of the side surface part, and an inner surface part which is bent and extends from the other side of the side surface part. The sealing frame is provided as a configuration of a concave groove in which the width between the outer surface part and the inner surface part is smaller than the width of the side surface part. According to the present invention, a peripheral portion of the vacuum adiabatic body can be stably maintained.
