We studied the crystal and magnetic structure of Ca2RuO4 by different diffraction techniques under high pressure. The observed first order phase transition at moderate pressure (0.5 GPa) between the insulating phase and the metallic high pressure phase is characterized by a broad region of phase coexistence. The following structural changes are observed as function of pressure: a) a discontinuous change of both the tilt and rotation angle of the RuO6-Octahedra at this transition, b) a gradual decrease of the tilt angle in the high pressure phase (p>0.5 GPa) and c) the disappearance of the tilt above 5.5GPa leading to a higher symmetry structure. By single crystal neutron diffraction at low temperature, the ferromagnetic component of the high pressure phase and a rearrangement of antiferromagnetic order in the low pressure phase was observed.
