A deodorizing device for a refrigerator is disclosed. The deodorizing device includes a deodorizing unit which is detachably mounted to a cooling air return port of a cooling chamber and sucks the cooling air laden with odor and bacteria thereinto by the blowing force of a cooling air fan. The deodorizing unit includes a cooling air grille provided with a plurality of cooling air through holes, a deodorant container provided on each side of the top surface of the grille a guide cover detachably coupled to the grille for guiding the cooling air to the cooling: air return passage, and a fixing plate for fixing the guide cover to an inner case of the freezing chamber so as to mount the deodorizing unit to the second cooling air return port. The fixing plate is placed on the top of the guide cover.
