A micromechanical component for a sensor device including a substrate having a substrate surface, at least one stator electrode situated on the substrate surface and/or on the at least one intermediate layer covering at least partially the substrate surface, which is formed in each case from a first semiconductor and/or metal layer, at least one adjustably situated actuator electrode, which is formed in each case from a second semiconductor and/or metal layer, and a diaphragm spanning the at least one stator electrode and the at least one actuator electrode, including a diaphragm exterior side directed away from the at least one stator electrode, which is formed from a third semiconductor and/or metal layer, a stiffening and/or protective structure protruding at the diaphragm exterior side being formed from a fourth semiconductor and/or metal layer.
