The invention relates to a device and a method for detecting a derailment for rail vehicles and to a rail vehicle, said device comprising at least one beam-based first distance sensor (14) and at least one analysis device (16), wherein at least the first distance sensor (14) is connected to the at least one analysis device (16) so as to transmit signals, and measurement results of at least the first distance sensor (14) can be analyzed by means of the at least one analysis device (16). According to the invention, at least the first distance sensor (14) can be connected to a chassis (1) in such a manner that a rail (18) of a track can be irradiated with signals by means of at least the first distance sensor (14), and the at least one analysis device (16) is designed to detect whether a first wheel (5) of a rail vehicle is being supported on the rail (18). In this manner, a simple and reliable detection of a derailment is facilitated.
