Zusammenfassung:A device for aftertreatment of exhaust gases, having a flow section which is able to be flowed through by exhaust gas and has at least one honeycomb body, acting as a catalytic converter, and has at least one heating element. The heating element is formed from a ceramic material which is able to be flowed through along a plurality of flow channels from an inflow side to an outflow side. The heating element is electrically conductive along the walls delimiting the flow channels and, by an electrical contact, is connectable to a voltage source, wherein the heating element runs in a meandering manner over a through-flowable cross section of the flow section.
