Described is an interior trim part for covering an airbag, which may include a two-dimensional carrier, a surface decor and a foamed intermediate layer. A through-opening for the airbag is recessed in the carrier, and an inlay covering the through-opening is applied into the intermediate layer, such that the inlay projects beyond an edge of the through-opening on one side and there, in an overlapping region of the inlay and of the carrier, serves as a hinge for an airbag flap formed by the surface decor and the intermediate layer with the inlay. Furthermore, with a folding open of the airbag flap, an energy amount which is dependent on the intensity of an opening impact of the airbag, may be absorbed by way of a release of the intermediate layer with the inlay from the carrier, away from the edge in the overlapping region.
