A method is provided for manufacturing a wind turbine rotor blade in which the blade is formed as a laminated structure by laying a composite material of fiber reinforcement material and/or core material in a mold defining the shape of the blade; evacuating the mold after laying the composite material; introducing a liquid polymer into the evacuated mold and wetting the composite material; curing the liquid polymer after the composite material has been wetted; and removing the mold after curing the liquid. At least one lightning conductor is integrated into the composite material before wetting it with the liquid polymer. Moreover, a wind turbine rotor blade made from a single laminated structure is provided with at least one lightning conductor is integrated into the laminated structure.
