  This paper will summarize the status of the linear accelerator of the Swiss free-electron laser SwissFEL. It will be based on C-band technology and will use solid-state modulators and a novel type of C-band accelerating structures which has been designed at PSI. Initial test results of first 2 m long structures will be presented together with measurements performed with the first BOC-type pulse compressors. Furthermore, we will present first results of a water cooling system for the accelerating structures and the pulse compressors.
