The design constraints and the target physics performance of the ATLAS Electromagnetic Calorimeter are reviewed, and the construction status is summarized. Test-beam data, covering a large part of the final detector, have been analysed and measurements of several important detector performance estimators are presented. Finally, some aspects of the electron and photon reconstruction and the expected performance of the detector are reviewed.
