Helioseismology has provided detailed inferences about the internal rotation of the Sun, and hence stringent constraints on any attempt to understand the properties and evolution of stellar rotation. Here I briefly discuss the techniques used in the analysis and review the results that have been obtained. Strikingly, these results are markedly different from the predictions made before the helioseismic data became available, emphasizing the difficulties in the modelling of phenomena as complex as stellar internal rotation.
