A guiding device for holding and guiding a sliding door, with which a furniture opening of a piece of furniture can be closed, comprising
- a guide fitting that is connectable to the sliding door and that is connected via a first articulated joint to a first end piece of a guide lever, and
- a guide carriage comprising a carriage body that holds two guide rollers arranged in running direction behind one another and are guided in a guide channel that extends at least on one side in a terminal channel section along a curve into the furniture opening, a second end piece of the guide lever being connected via a second articulated joint to the guide carriage,
- wherein
- the guide lever is curved such that the guide fitting is held offset from the guide channel and is ahead of the guide carriage in an opening direction and during the opening process of the sliding door;
- the carriage body is connected by a coupling spring to the second end piece of the guide lever;
- and
- the guide carriage is turned when traversing the terminal channel section, so that the coupling spring is tensioned and executes a force or a torque onto the guide lever.
