    The author proves that two Klein bottles are isometric if and only if they are isospectral. The proof is based on an explicit formula for the trace function on a Klein bottle. The formula is obtained from the connection of the spectra of the Laplacian on a Klein bottle and its covering torus, with the trace formula for a torus previously found by \textit{R.~Brooks} [Am. Math. Mon. 95, No. 9, 823-839 (1988; Zbl 0673.58046)].
