In the context of PLATO, a benchmark star is a star with very well-defined properties useful to calibrate pipelines and models before the operations start and to validate results during the operational phase. Here we present such a sample of benchmark stars that fulfills the requirements from WP120000. The sample contains two sets of benchmark stars: one with accurate parameters from well-studied stars (Gaia benchmark stars, Titans I and II samples, solar analogs, binaries, etc.), and another with precise parameters from large catalogues (e.g. from SPOCS, Gaia-Kepler, APOGEE-Kepler, etc.). In addition, a benchmark level is defined for each property: a level B1 corresponds to an 'accurate' property coming from first principles or with a low dependency on models, a level B2 corresponds to a 'precise' property with high dependency on models, and a level B3 corresponds to a property derived from empirical relations. The characteristics of the PLATO benchmark database will be presented and discussed in the context of the preparation and exploitation of the PLATO mission.
