The Gräberfeld Axtbach 3 is a small Bronze Age cemetery in Oelde (North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany).
The site was discovered during the building of a house in 1949. Two urns, from which at least one dates from the late Bronze Age, were found. It is not known how big the cemetery was, as regular excavations have not taken place yet.
