A method and a device twist single cables about a twisting axis. The single cables each run along a cable axis and have wires, which are twisted in a strand twisting direction to form a strand, and also each have a first cable end and a second cable end. The first cable ends are held separately by a single rotating unit in each case. The second cable ends are held by a twisting unit. The second cable ends are rotated jointly about the twisting axis counter to the strand twisting direction to produce a twisted cable bundle. During the joint rotation, the first cable ends are rotated separately about a cable axis of the respective single cable, in the same rotation direction as the joint rotation. The single cables are each relieved of torsion thereby.
