We study the 56Fe(nu_e,e^-)56Co cross section for the KARMEN neutrino spectrum. The Gamow-Teller contribution to the cross section is calculated within the shell model, while the forbidden transitions are evaluated within the continuum random phase approximation. We find a total cross section of 2.73 x 10^-40 cm^2, in agreement with the data.
