Producing a solar trough collector includes fastening a mirror to a structure so that the mirror connects to the structure and has a holding container and a mirrored side facing away from the holding container, the mirror and structure forming joining components, aligning the mirror and structure into a joining position to form a joining gap between joining surfaces; at least temporarily fixing the joining components in the joining position by laying the mirrored side downward in a first holding device, suspending the structure in a second holding device arranged above the mirror, and moving holding devices into the joining position; filling the joining gaps with a joining medium; and allowing the joining medium to harden in the gap to form a permanent connection, wherein the holding devices are held in position until the joining medium has at least partially hardened.
