A furniture hinge includes a fitting part and a hinge cup that is pivotably connected thereto by way of at least one articulated lever. The articulated lever is connected to the hinge cup by way of an articulated axis (A). A cushioning apparatus can be actuated by an actuating element and is provided to cushion a relative movement between the fitting part and the hinge cup. The actuating element is mounted inside the hinge cup rotatably about a rotational axis (S) extending substantially parallel to the articulated axis (A) of the hinge cup, and the cushioning apparatus includes at least one linear cushioning member having at least one linearly displaceable plunger. A transmission mechanism converts a rotary movement of the actuating element into a linear movement of the plunger of the linear cushioning member.
