A battery incudes wound positive and negative electrodes, where the wound positive electrode includes a positive electrode current collector, a first positive electrode active material layer provided on an inner surface of the positive electrode current collector, and a second positive electrode active material layer provided on an outer surface of the positive electrode current collector. An inner circumference side end portion and an outer circumference side end portion of the positive electrode current collector are covered with the first active material layer, and the first positive electrode active material layer includes a low area density portion in a portion facing an inner circumference side end portion of the wound positive electrode.
