  In order to allow THz pump-X-ray probe experiments at full bunch repetition rate for users at the European XFEL, the Photo Injector Test Facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) is building a prototype of an accelerator-based THz source. The goal is to generate THz SASE FEL radiation with a mJ energy level per bunch using an LCLS-I undulator driven by the electron beam from PITZ. Therefore, the existing PITZ beam line is extended into a tunnel annex downstream of the existing accelerator tunnel. The beam line extension in the PITZ tunnel consists of three quadrupole magnets, a bunch compressor, a collimation system and a beam dump. In the second tunnel a dipole magnet allows to serve two beam lines, one of them the THz@PITZ beam line. It consists of one LCLS-I undulator for the production of the THz radiation, a quadrupole triplet in front of it and a quadrupole doublet behind it. For the electron beam diagnostic six new screen stations are built, three of them also allow for the observation of the THz radiation for measurements. In addition six BPMs and a new BLM system for machine protection and FEL gain curve measurement will be installed. The progress of this work will be presented.

An accelerator-based THz source for pump-probe experiments at the European XFEL is under development at the Photo Injector Test Facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ). For the proof-of-principle experiments an LCLS-I undulator is planned to be installed downstream of the PITZ accelerator. The fields of the undulator module 26 have been re-measured at DESY in Hamburg and the results are consistent with earlier SLAC measurements. A model for 3D field reconstruction based on the undulator magnetic measurements has been developed. It includes also a horizontal gradient of the vertical field. Tracking of the 17 MeV/c beam has revealed that the transverse gradient will lead to a significant off-axis trajectory in the horizontal plane. This offset has to be corrected with a steering coil, the design of which is also presented. The performance of the THz generation with the correction coil is discussed as well.
