The spectral energy distribution of the Seyfert type-2 galaxy Mk 348 is analyzed based on IUE observations and published data. It is found that most of the optical and near-IR flux comes from the underlying galaxy bulge population. The rest of the emission can be fitted by a power law. In order to explain the X-ray emission, the power law requires either a change of slope or a cutoff before 2 keV. The possibility that the emission originates in a young star cluster is discussed, and a simple population synthesis model for the continuum of the galaxy is presented.
