A convertible vehicle roof (1) adjustable between a closed position and an open position comprises at least two roof parts (2,3) arranged one behind the other in the vehicle longitudinal direction in the closed position, which are coupled to one another via a hinge mechanism (4), wherein to open the vehicle roof (1) the front roof part (2) can be pivoted about a pivot axis located in the transition region between the front and rear roof part (2,3) into a position underneath the rear roof part (3). During the transition from the closed position to the open position, the front roof part (2) and the rear roof part (3) are translationally displaceable relative to one another. In the displaced position, the front roof part (2) can be pivoted about the pivot axis underneath the rear roof part (3).
