A rearward body structure of a motor vehicle has a vehicle body shell cutout for a tailgate attached to the body structure. The body structure has a roof junction assembly in which a lateral roof side member, a transversely extending roof frame with a hinge connection for the tailgate and a rear column converge, the roof side member the roof frame and the column respectively in a sheet metal shell construction having at least an exterior wall and an interior wall. The roof junction assembly also has an interior side part with a roof side member extension, a roof frame extension as well as a column extension, which roof side member extension and column extension each form the respective interior wall, on which roof frame extension a hinge reinforcement of the hinge connection is fastened. In order to provide the rearward body structure with sufficient stiffness, it is provided that the roof frame extension of the interior side part forms a section of the exterior wall of the transversely extending roof frame, in that the hinge reinforcement is fastened to an interior surface of the roof frame extension and in that an interior roof frame part forms the interior wall of the roof frame.
