An apparatus for handling rotor blades of wind power installations. An apparatus for simplified handling of rotor blades is afforded by a carrier element and at least one rotor blade receiving means fixedly connected thereto. A rotor blade is received in the apparatus during a blade fitting procedure. The apparatus may reduce the effect of the wind and the effect of mass inertia on during the blade fitting procedure.
