In this paper, we address the solvability of the critical Lane-Emden system \begincases -Δu=|v|p-1v amp;in Ωε,
-Δv=|u|q-1u amp;in Ωε,
u=v=0 amp;on ∂ Ωε, \endcases where N ≥ 4, p ∈ (1,(N-1)/(N-2)), (1)/(p+1) + (1)/(q+1)=(N-2)/(N), and Ωε is a smooth bounded domain with a small hole of radius ε> 0. We prove that the system admits a family of positive solutions that concentrate around the center of the hole as ε→ 0, obtaining a concrete qualitative description of the solutions as well. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first existence result for the critical Lane-Emden system on a bounded domain, while the non-existence result on star-shaped bounded domains has been known since the early 1990s due to Mitidieri (1993) [30] and van der Vorst (1991) [36].
