The invention relates to a galvanic cell (2) comprising a housing (4) which is equipped with at least one cell coil or a cell stack and comprising a sensor (16) for detecting the pressure of the galvanic cell (2). The housing (4) has a recess which is formed from a through-opening between an interior and an exterior of the cell (2), and the sensor (16) is arranged outside of the cell (2) so as to be secured directly or indirectly to the cell. The sensor (16), in particular a micro electromechanical system, is in contact with the interior of the galvanic cell (2) via the recess. The invention additionally relates to a method for producing such a galvanic cell (2).
