How to Merge Cells in Notion

Quick summary

Notion does not natively support merging cells in a table block, but you can achieve the same visual effect by stacking two tables and stretching cells to align them. This workaround lets you create the appearance of a merged cell layout directly inside any Notion page.

Steps

1. Use the /table command to create a simple table block in your Notion page.
2. Extend the table to your desired number of rows and columns.
3. Create a second table positioned where you want the merged cell effect to appear.
4. Stretch specific cells in the second table to align with the first table's layout.
5. Review the final result — the extended cell now acts as a merged cell across both stacked tables.
