Altmark är ett historiskt landskap i Tyskland, som idag utgör den nordligaste delen av förbundslandet Sachsen-Anhalt. Sedan 1990-talet indelas det historiska Altmark i två administrativa landkretsar, Altmarkkreis Salzwedel och Landkreis Stendal, som tillsammans utgör en gemensam valkrets för valet till Tysklands förbundsdag. Regionen benämns ibland Brandenburgs vagga eller Preussens vagga, då detta område under medeltiden kom att utgöra den ursprungliga kärnan i Markgrevskapet Brandenburg och det senare bildade kungadömet Preussen.
