A device for measuring the spring compression position of a motor vehicle, with a number of axle components (3) and a chassis (2) includes spring elements (1) arranged between the axle components (3) and the chassis (2), as well as with at least one magnet array (7) and at least one magnetic field sensor (8). The magnetic field sensor (8) is displaced in relation to the magnet array (7) in the case of a change in the spring compression position of the motor vehicle. The magnet array (7) or the magnetic field sensor (8) is arranged at a point of the spring element (1) that moves in case of a change in the spring compression position in relation to both the chassis (2) and in relation to the axle component (3).
