The Amelungsburg is a former ringfort that is located on the Amelungsberg hill on the Süntel ridge in the district of Hameln-Pyrmont in the German state of Lower Saxony.
The site is around 15 hectares and lies on the plateau of Amelungsberg, which is 900 metres long and 300 metres wide, and drops away steeply on all sides. The fortifications comprise a rampart on two sides of the terrain with a length of around 1000 metres. Today it has a height of about 1.5 metres and is up to 4 metres wide. On the other two sides only slight traces of ramparts remain. There are the remains of a former entranceway on the southeastern side of the plateau just under 70 metres west of the present day breach in the defences by a forest track.
