  We present X-ray spectra of the nucleus of the nearby radio galaxy Centaurus
A from observations with the XMM-Newton EPIC CCD cameras (two exposures
separated by 12 months) and the Chandra HETGS. For the first time in an FRI
type galaxy, we resolve fluorescent K$\alpha$ emission from cold, neutral, or
near-neutral iron at 6.4 keV, with an rms line width of $\sim$20 eV. The Fe
line parameters observed are consistent with fluorescent emission from material
at a large distance from the AGN, either in the form of an absorber that nearly
completely surrounds the central engine or a torus that lies predominantly out
of the line of sight. Unresolved emission lines from neutral Si K$\alpha$ at
1.74 keV and neutral S K$\alpha$ at 2.30 keV are also detected. We find no
evidence in the data for a previously reported 6.8 keV broadened Fe line. The
continuum spectrum is well fitted with a combination of a heavily absorbed
power-law component that we relate, using Bondi theory, to accretion phenomena
in the form of a standard, geometrically thin, optically thick disk, and a
second, less absorbed, power-law component that we associate with emission from
the subparsec VLBI radio jet.
