The invention relates to an aircraft landing gear (1) comprising a stationary element and at least one movable element which can move relative to the stationary element between a first position and a second position, and detection means arranged to detect when the movable element is in at least one of its positions, characterized in that the detection means comprise at least one threadlike, flexible shape sensor (10), connected to an electronic processing unit (12) arranged to deduce the position of the movable element from the shape of the shape sensor (10), the shape sensor (10) comprising a first section (11.1) rigidly connected to the stationary element and a second section (11.2) rigidly connected to the movable element so that the first section (11.1) and the second section (11.2) are immobile with respect to the stationary element and the movable element, respectively, and are movable relative to one another.
