Abstract: A housing, in particular a housing for electronic components, which includes a housing part which is made of plastic and has at least one opening, and a lid part for closing off the opening. It is proposed that the lid part is produced as a metal punched part, the punched edge of the lid part having a punch ridge on a first side of the lid part and a punch indentation on a second side opposite the first side, and the lid part being pressed into the opening of the housing part via the second side so that the lid part comes to rest against assigned sections of the inner wall of the opening via at least two edge sections that are distributed around the perimeter of the lid part and bites into the assigned sections of the inner wall in a barb-like manner via the punch ridge.
