Disclosed is a molten carbonate fuel cell capable of preventing the leakage of a fuel gas due to deterioration of material by suppressing a high temperature generated at a hot section within a unit cell, thereby improving the reliability thereof. The present invention provides a molten carbonate fuel cell including a plurality of stacked unit cells, and separator platesinterposed between the adjacent unit cells, the respective unit cells having porous fuel electrode platesand, air electrode platesand, and electrolyte platesinterposed between these electrode plates; wherein the separator plateforming a bodyof the unit cellis provided with at a center thereof intake internal manifoldsandarranged at regular intervals for taking in fuel gas R and oxidant gas O towards a center of the body, and at both sides thereof exhaust internal manifoldsandfor exhausting the reacted fuel gas R and the reacted oxidant gas O, as well as forming passages for the fuel gas R ad the oxidant gas O at both sides thereof.
