An endoscope includes an image transmission device in a shaft for transmitting an image from the distal end to the proximal end of the endoscope and an image erecting device for erecting an image registered by means of the endoscope. The image erecting device has a first surface for angle-dependent reflection and a second surface for angle-dependent reflection. The image erecting device is arranged and embodied in such a way that light for image erecting is successively reflected at the first reflective surface, passed through the first reflective surface and through the second, reflective surface and reflected at the second reflective surface.
