We present the discovery of the Optical Transient (OT) of the long–duration gamma-ray burst GRB 000926. The
optical transient was detected independently with the Nordic Optical Telescope and at Calar Alto 22.2 hours after the burst. At
this time the magnitude of the transient was R = 19.36. The transient faded with a decay slope of about 1.7 during the first two
days after which the slope increased ...
