An ashtray, particularly for automotive vehicles, includes a receiving frame which can be fastened in a wall recess, a receiving housing pivotably connected to the frame, and an ashtray insert removably arranged in the housing. The ashtray insert is mounted in the receiving housing in such a manner that it can be lifted toward an opening between the frame and the housing by an actuating element such as a spring-steel strip. A detent spring includes a detent projection which releasably holds the insert within the housing and a deceleration projection which prevents the insert from being ejected when it is released.
