The present invention relates to a filter element (1), in particular for a gas filtering device, preferably of a fresh air system of a vehicle, comprising at least one filter body (2) of filter material (5), comprising a supporting structure (3) for positioning the respective filter body (2), and comprising an interior space (4), which is enclosed in the circumferential direction (6) by the supporting structure (3) and the at least one filter body (2) and which is axially bounded by the supporting structure (3). A simplified and inexpensive construction is obtained if the supporting structure (3) is moulded onto the at least one filter body (2) and forms a monolithic block of plastic.
