Borexino, a real-time device for low energy neutrino spectroscopy has completed the construction phase at the middle of 2006 in the underground laboratories of Gran Sasso, Italy. The detector has been filled with 1300 tons of highly purified scintillator and 2400 tons of ultra-pure water as external shield and since May 16th is taking data. The experimental goal is the direct measurement of the flux of Be7 solar neutrinos of all flavors via neutrino-electron scattering in an ultra-pure scintillation liquid. The paper describes the design of the Borexino detector, the construction phases and the various facilities which play an essential role for its operation. Performances of the major subsystems and the whole detector will be presented as well.
