According to one embodiment, a nonvolatile memory device includes a selection element layer and a nanomaterial aggregate layer. The selection element layer includes silicon. The nanomaterial aggregate layer is stacked on the selection element layer. The nanomaterial aggregate layer includes a plurality of micro conductive bodies and fine particles dispersed in a plurality of gaps between the micro conductive bodies. At least a surface of the fine particle is made of an insulating material other than silicon oxide.
