The present invention is directed to a condenser microphone with a microphone housing cap with a sound inlet opening, a microphone housing with a cross-sectional opening facing the microphone housing cap, and a diaphragm resting along the cross-sectional opening on the front side of the microphone housing surrounding the cross-sectional opening, and a counter-electrode which faces this diaphragm and which is arranged at a short distance from the diaphragm. The invention is further directed to a corresponding method for producing a condenser microphone of this kind. The invention provides an improved condenser microphone and an improved method for producing such a condenser microphone so that the disadvantages of the prior art are overcome while reducing manufacturing-related resources and, therefore, costs at the same time in that the diaphragm of the condenser microphone is glued to the microphone housing in an angle area between the underside of the diaphragm and the outer side of the microphone housing.
