An electromechanical brake device has a brake caliper and a pressure piston mounted in the brake caliper such that it can move in a clamping direction, wherein the brake device has an electromechanical clamping device, wherein the clamping device is supported, on one side, on the pressure piston and is designed to apply to the pressure piston a force acting in the clamping direction. It is provided that the brake device has at least one hydraulically sealed, fluid-filled cavity, wherein the clamping device is supported, on the other side, indirectly on the brake caliper via the fluid-filled cavity, and wherein a pressure sensor is hydraulically connected to the fluid-filled cavity and is designed to calculate the fluid pressure inside the fluid-filled cavity.
