The Crab nebula has been observed extensively with the HEGRA system of imaging air Cherenkov telescopes. Roughly 400 hours of prime observation time at zenith angles between 5 and 65 degrees have been dedicated to the standard candle in TeV astronomy. Based up on the data set gathered during the 5 years of operation of the HEGRA telescopes, the energy spectrum has been reconstructed. The energy spectrum extends from 500 GeV beyond 20 TeV and allows to constrain the position of a possible high-energy cut-off.
