The invention concerns a device for holding a trailer coupler onto a hitch attached to a vehicle. The device comprises a base, a rigid C-shaped part and a mechanism for holding the rigid C-shaped part in the closed position. The base is fastened to a drawbar and to a vertical part. The C-shaped part comprises a central portion, an upper arm and a lower arm, and is equipped with a mechanism to enable the C-shaped part to slide along the vertical portion of the base between an "open" position, in which the trailer coupler has access to the hitch, and a "closed" position, in which the upper arm of the C-shaped part prevents the coupler from being withdrawn from the hitch. This device is easy to use and install, and it closes automatically when the coupler is in place on the hitch, preventing the coupler from detaching from the hitch.
