A path-measuring device for measuring a path covered by a moving object deflectable along a direction has at least a first component associated with the moving object and a stationary second component. The components are coupled with one another for converting a motion and/or deflection of the moving object into an electrical signal. Moreover, the path-measuring device has an evaluating device for converting the electrical signal into motion and/or position information. Thus the path-measuring device can be used with high accuracy, without wear, insensitive to vibrations, shocks, or corrosion, and economically in almost all media without special sealing and in any pressure range, the first component is a spring element connecting a moving object and the second component is a force-measuring device issuing an electrical signal corresponding to a force exerted on the spring element.
