Provided is a suspension device for an in-wheel motor driven wheel, the device ensuring an axle direction length of an in-wheel motor unit without setting the upper end of a shock absorber at a high position. A wheel (1) driven by an in-wheel motor unit (7) is suspended from a vehicle body (S) via a suspension structure member (10) provided with an upper suspension arm (11) and a third link (13). The third link (13) is linked with the upper suspension arm (11) in such a manner that the wheel (1) can be rocked, and includes a shock absorber link portion (13c) linked with a lower end portion (15a) of the shock absorber (15). The shock absorber link portion (13c) is disposed at a lower vehicle position than an upper end surface (8a) of the in-wheel motor unit (7). The shock absorber (15) is disposed between the vehicle body (S) and the in-wheel motor unit (7) while being inclined to approach the vehicle body (S) toward the lower end portion (15a).
