The invention provides a method of cryopreserving a tissue derived from a pluripotent stem cell, including the steps of (1) bringing a tissue derived from a pluripotent stem cell into contact with a cell protection solution that contains sulfoxide and chain polyol, (2) maintaining, in a cryopreservation solution, the pluripotent stem cell-derived tissue that was brought into contact with the cell protection solution in the first step, and (3) cryopreserving, in the presence of a coolant, the pluripotent stem cell-derived tissue that was maintained in the cryopreservation solution.
