A manufacturing method of a monocrystalline silicon includes: a growth step in which a seed crystal having contacted a silicon melt is pulled up and a crucible is rotated and raised to form a straight body of the monocrystalline silicon; a separating step in which the monocrystalline silicon is separated from the silicon melt; a state holding step in which the crucible and the monocrystalline silicon are lowered and the monocrystalline silicon is kept at a level at which an upper end of the straight body is located at the same level as an upper end of a heat shield or is located below the upper end of the heat shield for a predetermined time; and a draw-out step in which the monocrystalline silicon is drawn out of a chamber.
