A fuselage cell for an aircraft includes at least two shell segments forming a fuselage cell. The shell segments are provided with a plurality of longitudinal and/or circumferential reinforcements that are integral with a skin panel of the respective shell segment. The reinforcements at least sectionally form a closed cross-sectional geometry together with at least the skin panel of the corresponding shell segment in order to create at least one hollow space, wherein at least one system component at least sectionally extends and/or at least one system medium is at least sectionally routed in the at least one hollow space. The reinforcements also fulfill the function of accommodating at least part of the system components and system mediums of the technical equipment of the aircraft. This results in weight savings and a simplified installation because the number of required mountings and connectors for the system components is reduced.
