An axial turbomachine including a rotor blade cascade is provided. The rotor blade cascade includes rotor blades each including front edge, a radially outer free blade tip and an annular enclosure enclosing the rotor blade cascade with an annulus inner side by means of which the annular enclosure is arranged directly adjacent to the blade tips to give a radial gap between the enveloping ends of the blade tips and the annulus inner side. The rotor blades include a radial projection in the region of the front edge on the blade tip and the annular enclosure has an annular radial recess in the annulus inner side, arranged at a radial distance from the ends of the blade tips, such that in the main flow direction of the axial turbomachine the line of the radial projections on the side facing the radial gap matches the line of the radial recess.
