The Spöllberg burial ground (High German: Spielberg) is located northwest of Nordhorn and south of Gölenkamp, on a juniper-covered heath in the Grafschaft Bentheim district of Lower Saxony.

The burial ground consists of eight burial mounds, the central mound of which is notable for its height of 2.5 m. The smallest, in the north, is only 60 cm high. The other mounds stand out in the terrain due to their more pronounced curvatures. During mostly unsystematic excavations and during the excavation by J. H. Müller in 1877, repeated finds and findings have been made at Spöllberg, dating from the late Neolithic period (rock axe of the single-grave culture) to the end of the Bronze Age or the beginning of the Iron Age.
