There is disclosed a honeycomb structure 1 which is made of a ceramic material and in which a plurality of honeycomb segments 12 having cell structures 5 and porous outer walls 7 on outer peripheries of the cell structures 5 are integrated by bonding the outer walls 7 to one another with a bonding material, each of the cell structures being provided with a plurality of cells 3 constituting fluid channels divided by porous partition walls 2, wherein the bonding material contains a bio-soluble fiber. The honeycomb structure 1 of the present invention has a performance equivalent to that of a honeycomb structure in which a heretofore used ceramic fiber is contained.
