A magnet arrangement (1) having a permanent magnet system with at least two ring-shaped magnet elements (2) which are made of individual magnet segments (3), are arranged cylindrically symmetrically and stacked on one another in the z direction and/or concentrically, and arranged such that the magnetization directions of the individual segments in the rings extend parallel in an x-y plane. The magnet elements align relative to one another in the z direction and have a Halbach magnetization Before final mounting in the magnetic resonance apparatus, the magnet elements are prefabricated as solid structures and their respective magnet segments are fixed undisplaceably relative to one another. But the magnet elements are displaceable relative to one another in the x-y plane, and are mounted rotatably and/or tiltably relative to one another.
