It is shown that lattice codes can achieve capacity on the additive white Gaussian noise channel. More precisely, for any rate R less than capacity and e>0, there exists a lattice code with rate no less than R and average error probability upper-bounded by e. These lattice codes include all points of the (translated) lattice within the spherical bounding region (not just the ones inside a thin spherical shell).
