Low-cost, high-purity strontium nitrate that is low in Ba, Na, Ca, Cr, and other impurities and that is suitable for use in airbags or the like is provided. High-purity strontium nitrate having a Ba content of 0.01 wt % or lower, an Na content of 0.005 wt % or lower, a Ca content of 0.01 wt % or lower, a Cr content of less than 0.001 wt %, and a purity of 99.5 wt % or higher is produced by a manufacturing method comprising a first step for performing crystallization by adding nitric acid to an aqueous solution obtained by dissolving a strontium compound as a starting material, a second step for separating the resulting crystals, a third step for crystallizing the resulting separated solution, and a fourth step for separating the resulting crystals.
