Abstract: The present invention relates to a rotor blade which has a coating, to a corresponding method for producing the coating, and to a method for heating and/or deicing the outer surface of the rotor blade and/or an outermost layer applied onto the outer surface of the rotor blade. The task underlying the invention is to develop a functional multi-layered coating that constitutes a comprehensive protection against the various environmental influences. The task is accomplished by a rotor blade which has an outer surface and by an at least two-layered coating applied onto the outer surface, having a first adhesion-facilitating metal layer and/or a first adhesion-facilitating layer which has electric heating elements and a second metal layer, wherein the first adhesion-facilitating metal layer and/or the first adhesion-facilitating layer which has electric heating elements is arranged between the outer surface of the rotor blade and the second metal layer.
