The Borexino experiment, aimed at measuring the flux of 7Be neutrinos from the Sun, is outlined and its importance is briefly discussed in the context of the present solar neutrino experimental scenario. The low energy of the 7Be neutrinos presents new challenges in low background counting which have never before been reached; a 5-ton prototype Counting Test Facility has been running for about two years in the Gran Sasso Laboratory to demonstrate the feasibility of the experiment; some of the most relevant results are reported. The background requirements and design strategy of the full-scale detector are discussed with the expected final experimental performance.
