A prosthesis joint including a base, a coupling element for attachment to a body part or a prosthesis section, which is attached to the base, and an attachment device for attachment to a prosthesis device, which is coupled to the base and pivotable around at least one axis. A locking device is coupled to the coupling element and operates to selectively block and enable movement of the attachment device with respect to the base providing locked and unlocked positions, respectively. A retention element is carried by at least one of the base and coupling elements and is elastically pre-stressed against the attachment device to provide a retention force for the attachment device so as to resist undesired pivoting movement.
