The local class group of a Krull domain A is the quotient group G(A) = CI(A)/Pic(A). A Krull domain A is locally factorial if and only if G(A) = 0. In this paper, we characterize the Krull domains for which G(A) is a torsion group. We evaluate the local class group of several examples and finally, we explain why every abelian group is the local class group of a Krull domain.
