A motor housing 20 for an axial flux motor 10. The motor housing 20 includes at least one housing portion 22, 24 which is of at least partially double-walled configuration, in order to configure an internal cooling channel 40 in the housing portion 22, 24. The cooling channel 40 extends in a substantially annular manner in the circumferential direction 6 between an inlet 41a and an outlet 41b, in order, during operation, to produce a first cooling flow 82 which flows substantially in the circumferential direction 6 through the cooling channel 40. Furthermore, the cooling channel 40 includes a plurality of transverse ribs 50.
