We report new spectroscopic and photometric observations of the white dwarf companion to the pulsar PSR B0820+02. The white dwarf is a normal DA white dwarf with an effective temperature of 15000 K and a mass of 0.6 M-circle dot. The mass and orbital period of this system confirms recent simulations of the evolution of a neutron star - main sequence binary with mass exchange. The cooling age of the white dwarf is larger than the spin-down age of the pulsar, unless a braking index of 2.2 is assumed(1).
