According to one variant, the airbag device comprises a first airbag segment, which has at least two material blanks and a second airbag segment which has at least two material blanks, wherein the material blanks of the first airbag segment and the material blanks of the second airbag segment are connected to one another at the respective circumferential edge in a gas-tight manner. The first airbag segment has a first transitional section and the second airbag segment has a second transitional section, wherein the transitional sections form a transitional region in which the two airbag segments are connected to one another in a gas-tight manner.
