The Erdwerk von Oberntudorf is a Neolithic earthwork in Salzkotten-Oberntudorf (North Rhine-Westphalia/Germany).

The interior of the earthwork was measured 12 ha and was surrounded by five trenches. The oldest animals bones found in the trenches date from 4130 (+/- 80 years) BC. The enclosure was built by the Michelsberg culture.
