1. A wheel suspension for a rear axle of a vehicle, comprising: a wheel carrier for affixing a wheel, with the wheel carrier together with the wheel being steerable in a pivoting range about a steering axis and being pivotable about a spring compression of the rear axle, with the pivoting range and the spring compression defining a wheel space of the wheel, which is taken up by the wheel during movements of the wheel between extreme positions in the pivoting range and the spring compression, a plurality of control arms for articulating the wheel carrier on a vehicle body of the vehicle, a damper device for damping movement of the wheel carrier relative to the vehicle body, said damper device being arranged on one of the control arms in an attachment region defined by a surface section of the wheel space that has a greatest direct distance from the vehicle body of all areas of the wheel space facing the vehicle body, wherein the wheel space of the wheel defined by the pivoting range of the wheel carrier is formed symmetrical to a plane of symmetry aligned with the steering axis, wherein the wheel carrier connection of the damper device is disposed in the plane of symmetry, and a spring device for springily affecting the movement of the wheel carrier relative to the vehicle body, said spring device being arranged separate from the damper device on said one of the control arms on a wheel-carrier-distal side of the damper device.
