An organic light-emitting diode includes a substrate with a top; an organic layer on the top that generates radiation; first and second electrical contact area at or on the top that electrically contacts the diode; a holding device by which the diode is mechanically supported and electrically contacted; and a cover sheet on a side of the organic layer remote from the substrate that protects the organic layer, wherein at least one opening is in the cover sheet and the opening, in plan view, is surrounded by the cover sheet and the organic layer; the areas are located at an edge of the opening and freely accessible; the device engages through the opening; the first area has a different average distance from the opening than the second area; and the electrical areas are each arranged concentrically around the opening and partially or completely surround the opening in plan view.
