Abstract: The invention relates to a rotor blade of a wind turbine, having a rotor blade nose, a rotor blade rear edge, a rotor blade root region for the attachment of the rotor blade to a hub of the wind turbine, a rotor blade tip, wherein the rotor blade extends from the rotor blade root region along a longitudinal direction to the rotor blade tip and the rotor blade internally comprises at least a first cavity facing the rotor blade nose and a second cavity facing the rotor blade rear edge, and the first cavity is heated by a first, and the second cavity is heated by a second heating means, in order to heat the rotor blade nose or the rotor blade rear edge respectively. In addition, it is suggested that the rotor blade have a rear edge segment disposed in the region of the rotor blade rear edge up to the root region, wherein the rear edge segment is designed having several parts having at least two segment sections.
