We report observations of the X-ray pulsar 1E2259+586 made in 1988 October using the very high energy gamma ray telescope operating in La Palma. We find evidence significant at the 5.3 × 10-5 level for the emission of 400 GeV gamma rays pulsating at 6.9790s. The flux of gamma rays is (2.0 +/- 0.8) × 10-10 cm-2 s-1 corresponding to VHE gamma ray luminosity of (5.3 +/- 2.1) × 1035 erg s-1.
