Duderstadt (German pronunciation: [ˈduːdɐˌʃtat] ⓘ) is a city in southern Lower Saxony, Germany, located in the district of Göttingen.

It is the centre and the capital of the northern part of the Eichsfeld ("Untereichsfeld"). It was once the private wealth of the Roman Catholic archbishop of Mainz.

The earliest documentary mention of Duderstadt was in 929 AD, and the city celebrates its anniversaries counting from that year.

It is located on the German Timber-Frame Road.
