  2011 was a successful year for the GREGOR project. The telescope was finally
completed in May with the installation of the 1.5-meter primary mirror. The
installation of the first-light focal plane instruments was completed by the
end of the year. At the same time, the preparations for the installation of the
high-order adaptive optics were finished, its integration to the telescope is
scheduled for early 2012. This paper describes the telescope and its
instrumentation in their present first light configuration, and provides a
brief overview of the science goals of GREGOR.
