We report on deep multi-color imaging (R5sigma = 26) of the Chandra Deep Field South, obtained with the Wide Field Imager (WFI) at the MPG/ESO 2.2 m telescope on La Silla as part of the multi-color survey COMBO-17. As a result we present a catalogue of 63 501 objects in a field measuring 31farcm5 x 30arcmin with astrometry and BVR photometry. A sample of 37 variable objects is selected from two-epoch photometry. We try to give interpretations based on color and variation amplitude.
