An assembled battery comprises: multiple cells 30 each having external terminals including a negative electrode terminal 50 and a positive electrode terminal; a bus bar 40 which connects the external terminal of one of two adjacent cells 30 and that of the other thereof; an electrically-conductive connecting member 70 which connects the external terminal and the bus bar 40 by welding to the external terminal and the bus bar 40; a welding portion 80 welded to the bus bar 40 and the connecting member 70; and a welding portion 82 welded to the external terminal and the connecting member 70. The connecting member 70 comprises an intervening portion 70b connected to the welding portion 80, and a main body portion 70a extending from the intervening portion 70b to the welding portion 82. The intervening portion 70b has a thickness that is smaller than that of the main body portion 70a.
