An electromechanical drum brake comprises two brake segments intended to come into contact with a drum, and at least one actuator configured to apply the segments against the drum, and an electric motor configured to activate the actuator, the actuator comprising at least one member which is movable upon activation of the actuator, the movable member being movable between a braking position and a position beyond a release position, in which the segments are no longer in contact with the drum. The actuator comprises a stop which is arranged only in the actuator and against which the movable element bears when it assumes a position beyond the release position, and the motor powers the actuator until the movable element bears against the stop.
