The Urnengräberfeld Misburg is an urn cemetery in Hannover-Misburg (Lower Saxony/Germany). Excavations from 1958 discovered 38 Germanic burials. The cemetery might have belonged to the Germanic settlement Mudisa (ca. 4th-5th century).
Today, no remains of the cemetery can be seen above the ground. A boulder with an information panel informs about the site.
