We consider the problem of calculating the Gaussian curvature of a conical 2-dimensional space by using concepts and techniques of distribution theory. We apply the results obtained to calculate the Riemannian curvature of the 4-dimensional conical space-time. We show that the method can be extended for calculating the curvature of a special class of more general space-times with conical singularity.
