It includes the QSO Q0103-260 (z=3.36). The goal of this study is to improve our understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxies in the young Universe. In this paper the field selection, the photometric observations, and the data reduction are described. The source detection and photometry of objects in the FORS Deep Field is discussed in detail. A combined B and I selected UBgRIJKs photometric catalog of 8753 objects in the FDF is presented and its properties are briefly discussed. The formal 50% completeness limits for point sources, derived from the coadded images, are 25.64, 27.69, 26.86, 26.68, 26.37, 23.60 and 21.57 in U, B, g, R, I, J and Ks (Vega-system), respectively. A comparison of the number counts in the FORS Deep Field to those derived in other deep field surveys shows very good agreement. Description: Photometric and morphological parameters for 8753 objects (mostly galaxies) in the FORS Deep Field are presented. For each object we report the coordinates, total B and I magnitudes, aperture photometry within 2" in UBgRIJKs and morphological parameters (FWHM, elongation, PA and star-galaxy classification parameter from SExtractor). 3 flags are given, which give information on blending of the objects (from SExtractor), if an object was detected on the B or I frame only and a preliminary classification of 35 point-like objects. Finally, weights for the determination of the total B and I magnitudes are given.
