FLUTE, a new linac based test facility and THz source is currently being built at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in collaboration with DESY and PSI. It consist of an RF Photo Gun and a traveling wave linac accelerating electrons in the charge range from pC up to 3nC up to 40-50 MeV. The electron bunch will then be compressed in a magnetic chicane down to 1-300fs depending on the charge in order to produce coherent THz emission. An overview of the hardware and the construction status will be given.
