A centrifugal pump including a rotor and a housing surrounding the rotor, the housing having a connection on the pressure side and another on the intake side, respectively. The housing surrounding the rotor is constructed as a composite part in which a first thin-walled layer (5) defines the inner configuration of the housing, and at least one second layer (11) provides structural stability to the housing.
