A turbine vane, especially a turbine vane of the last stages, respectively includes a lower area which is radially and externally arranged, an upper area which is radially and internally arranged, and a radial cooling air channel extending between the upper area and the lower area. Cooling air can be introduced into the channel via an inlet in the lower area, and can be at least partially discharged via an outlet in the upper area. The cooling channel includes a radial inner channel through which the cooling air flows from the lower area to the upper area, and an outer channel which is adjacent to the inner channel on the circumferential side thereof. The outer channel communicates with the inner channel and includes an outlet which is arranged in the lower area. Part of the cooling air flows back in the direction of the lower area via the outer channel and emerges via the outlet.
