A thermostatic valve arranged in the coolant circuit of an internal-combustion engine, has a main valve which is acted upon by cold coolant flow on the one side, and by hot coolant flow on the other side. The valve is actuated as a function of the coolant temperature by way of an expansion material element equipped with an electric heating device. To minimize the coldside influence onto the expansion material element, a capsule which stores the expansion material, has an end which limits the expansion material lower at the level of the closed main valve or on the mixing chamber side. At this end, a ring-shaped or sleeve-shaped heating element is arranged coaxially adjacent the control pin, or, individual heating elements are distributed along the circumference of the control pin in an adjacent manner.
