An engine mounting for mounting an engine on the chassis of a motor vehicle has at least two fastening parts which are connected to one another with elastomeric springs. The engine mounting also has a hydraulic damping apparatus, and is configured so that the elastomeric springs have a hard shear-compression characteristic in two axes, and a soft shear characteristic in a third axis, the hydraulic damping apparatus being disposed in a direction parallel to the direction of the third axis.
