The Solar Tower Atmospheric Cherenkov Effect Experiment (STACEE) is a ground-based atmospheric Cherenkov telescope for the detection of very high energy gamma rays from Galactic and extra-galactic sources. By utilizing the large collection area provided by the solar mirrors of the National Solar Thermal Test Facility in Albuquerque, New Mexico, STACEE achieves a low energy threshold, around 100 GeV, for the detection of gamma rays. We briefly describe the STACEE detector and detail recent observations of Active Galactic Nuclei.
