  The initial results from XMM-Newton observations of the rich cluster of
galaxies Abell 1795 are presented. The spatially-resolved X-ray spectra taken
by the European Photon Imaging Cameras (EPIC) show a temperature drop at a
radius of $\sim 200$ kpc from the cluster center, indicating that the ICM is
cooling. Both the EPIC and the Reflection Grating Spectrometers (RGS) spectra
extracted from the cluster center can be described by an isothermal model with
a temperature of $\sim 4$ keV. The volume emission measure of any cool
component ($<1$ keV) is less than a few % of the hot component at the cluster
center. A strong OVIII Lyman-alpha line was detected with the RGS from the
cluster core. The O abundance and its ratio to Fe at the cluster center is
0.2--0.5 and 0.5--1.5 times the solar value, respectively.
