A gel electrolyte and gel-electrolyte battery. The gel electrolyte and gel-electrolyte battery have an improved cycle characteristic and preservation easiness at high temperatures. The gel-electrolyte battery incorporates a positive-electrode mix layer, a negative-electrode mix layer and a gel-electrolyte layer. The gel-electrolyte layer contains a plasticizer which contains lithium salt, a matrix polymer for dispersing the plasticizer and fibrous insolubles. The fibrous insolubles are contained in the gel electrolyte in a quantity not less than 0.1 wt % nor more than 50 wt %. The ratio of the length and diameter of the fibrous insolubles is not less than 10 nor more than 3000. The length of the fibrous insolubles is not less than 10 &mgr;nor more than 1 cm and the diameter of the fibrous insolubles is not less than 0.05 &mgr;m nor more than 50 &mgr;m.
