The invention relates to a method for the assembly of an aircraft fuselage, to a fuselage manufacturing station and to a construction kit. In this arrangement according to the method a pre-assembled cockpit unit (601), a pre-assembled wing box (602), a pre-assembled tail unit (603) and a plurality of pre-fabricated fuselage shell segments (611, 612, 613, 614) are provided. Furthermore, the method involves positioning the cockpit unit, the wing box and the tail unit. Moreover, a first front fuselage shell segment (612) is positioned on a front connecting region of the wing box, and a first rear fuselage shell segment (614) is positioned on a rear connecting region of the wing box. The first front fuselage shell segment is joined to a second front fuselage shell segment (611), and the first rear fuselage shell segment is joined to a second rear fuselage shell segment (613). As a result of the aforesaid, following the assembly of the aircraft fuselage an aircraft fuselage can be provided that already comprises equipment elements or functional elements.
