To provide a multiple disc clutch which can solve a problem of noise generated in the multiple disc clutch without relying on a sound absorption material.
As for this multiple disc clutch 1A, at least one set of two drive plates 4A is combined to constitute a drive plate part 5, and at least a part of an opposing face 4A1 for the other drive plate of each drive plate 4A which constitutes the drive plate part 5 is a tapered face 28A1. An inclination angle of the tapered face 28A1 and friction coefficient of the opposing face are set in such a manner that each drive plate 4A of the drive plate part 5 rotates backward in the peripheral direction for the other drive plate mutually due to pressing force in the axial direction which the drive plate part 5 receives when a clutch is in.
