A fuel cell is formed by alternately stacking separators and sealing gasket-combined membrane electrode assemblies. Each sealing gasket-combined membrane electrode assembly includes a membrane electrode assembly and a sealing gasket portion. One of the sealing gasket portion and the separator has a protrusion formed on each face and extending in a stacked direction in which the separators and the sealling gasket-combined membrane electrode assemblies are stacked. The other of the sealing gasket portion and the separator has a recess in which the protrusion is fitted. The protrusions formed respectively on opposed faces of the successive sealing gasket-combined membrane electrode assemblies or the successive separators are located at different positions.
