A bipolar battery that can achieve both a hermetic seal and mechanical strength and increases energy density is described. The bipolar lead acid battery includes an outer wall integrally projected along a peripheral edge on a facing surface of one frame-plate out of a pair of the frame-plates facing each other and a joining wall integrally projected on a facing surface of the other frame-plate out of the pair of the frame-plates facing each other. The joining wall is positioned inwardly from the outer wall of the one frame-plate and surrounds a peripheral edge of a cell member. The joining wall is joined to the facing surface of the one frame-plate by a joining material.
