A bearing, more particularly to an antifriction bearing having a first bearing ring (1), a second bearing ring (2), and a claw pole arrangement (13), wherein the claw pole arrangement (3) includes a first claw ring (4) with a series of first claws (5) and a second claw ring (6), integrated in the circumferential direction of the axis of rotation, with a series of second claws, wherein the claw rings (4, 8) are arranged on the first bearing ring (1), and the claws of the two claw rings (4, 6) form magnetic circuits with a series of magnetic poles (8) surrounding the axis of rotation, and wherein the magnetic poles (8) are arranged on the second bearing (3). The objective of specifying a bearing, more particularly an anti-friction bearing, having a detection device for bearing forces which is structurally easy to integrate, is met according to the invention by a gap (10) being formed in the circumferential direction at least in some sections between the first claw ring (4) and the second claw ring (6), wherein beyond the gap (10), the magnetic circuit is closed between a claw (5) of the first claw ring (4) and a claw of the second claw ring (6) adjacent in a circumferential direction, and by a magnetic sensor (11) arranged in the region of the gap (10) to detect the magnetic field passing through the gap (10).
